fs/ntfs3: Fix NULL deref in ntfs_update_mftmirr

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

fs/ntfs3: Fix NULL deref in ntfs_update_mftmirr

If ntfs_fill_super() wasn't called then sbi->sb will be equal to NULL.
Code should check this ptr before dereferencing. Syzbot hit this issue
via passing wrong mount param as can be seen from log below

Fail log:
ntfs3: Unknown parameter 'iochvrset'
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000003: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN
