xfs: Fix UBSAN null-ptr-deref in xfs_sysfs_init
If xfs_sysfs_init is called with parent_kobj == NULL, UBSAN
shows the following warning:
UBSAN: null-ptr-deref in ./fs/xfs/xfs_sysfs.h:37:23
member access within null pointer of type 'struct xfs_kobj'
Call Trace:

Fix it by checking parent_kobj before the code accesses its member.
