vfs: don't let do_last pass negative dentry to audit_inode

I can reliably reproduce the following panic by simply setting an audit
rule on a recent 3.5.0+ kernel:

The problem is that do_last is passing a negative dentry to audit_inode.
The comments on lookup_open note that it can pass back a negative dentry
if O_CREAT is not set.

This patch fixes the oops, but I'm not clear on whether there's a better
approach.
