ocfs2: check if cluster name exists before deref
Commit c74a3bdd9b52 ("ocfs2: add clustername to cluster connection") is
trying to strlcpy a string which was explicitly passed as NULL in the
very same patch, triggering a NULL ptr deref.

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)
  IP: strlcpy (lib/string.c:388 lib/string.c:151)

akpm: this patch probably disables the feature.  A temporary thing to
avoid triviel oopses.
