Tested on SAMA5D2_Xplained board (sama5d2_xplained_mmc_defconfig)
Looks like crash is introduced by commit:
"fa9ca8a" fs/ext4/ext4fs.c: Free dirnode in error path of ext4fs_ls
Issue is that dirnode is not initialized, and then freed if the call
to ext4_ls fails. ext4_ls will not change the value of dirnode in this case
thus we have a crash with data abort.
I added initialization and a check for dirname being NULL.
