We were always getting NULL here because the intent file f_dentry is always NULL at this point, which means we were always passing NULL to ceph_mdsc_do_request. In reality, this was fine, since this isn't currently ever a write operation that needs to get strung on the dir's unsafe list. Use the dir explicitly, and only pass it if this open has side-effects that a dir fsync should flush.
