ocfs2: avoid NULL pointer dereference in dx_dir_lookup_rec()

Browse source

When a directory entry is not found, ocfs2_dx_dir_lookup_rec() prints an
error message that unconditionally dereferences the 'rec' pointer. 
However, if 'rec' is NULL, this leads to a NULL pointer dereference and a
kernel panic.

Add an explicit check empty extent list to avoid dereferencing NULL
'rec' pointer.
