[PATCH v2] erofs: fix null-ptr-deref caused by erofs_xattr_prefixes_init

[Jingbo Xu]

Fragments and dedupe share one feature bit, and thus packed inode may not
exist when fragment feature bit (dedupe feature bit exactly) is set, e.g.
when deduplication feature is in use while fragments feature is not.  In
this case, sbi->packed_inode could be NULL while fragments feature bit
is set.

Fix this by accessing packed inode only when it exists.
