During trinity fuzzing in a kvmtool guest, I stumbled across the
following:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address

I believe this is due to an attempt to access utsname()->nodename, after
exit_task_namespaces() has been called, leaving current->nsproxy->uts_ns
as NULL and causing the above dereference.
A similar issue was fixed for lockd in
9a1b6bf818e7 ("LOCKD: Don't call
utsname()->nodename from nlmclnt_setlockargs"), so this patch attempts
something similar for 9pfs.
