    smb3: fix possible access to uninitialized pointer to DACL

    dacl_ptr can be null so we must check for it (ie if dacloffset is
set) everywhere dacl_ptr is
    used in build_sec_desc - and we were missing one check

    Addresses-Coverity: 1475598 ("Explicit null dereference")

Thanks,

Steve

Looks OK since dacl_ptr is only set if dacloffset is set but it would
be clearer if you check for dacl_ptr directly no? Any reason you are
checking this way?

I think this is clearer, unless I'm missing something:

ndacl_ptr->num_aces = dacl_ptr ? dacl_ptr->num_aces : 0;

I agree that your suggestion is clearer but I was trying to match the
existing checks in the same code.
Will change both to your suggestion which is clearer.

just changed the one place you noted (to keep the patch smaller) - see attached.
