nfsd: use of unitialized list head on error exit in nfs4recover.c

Thanks to Matthew Dodd for this bug report:

A file label issue while running SELinux in MLS mode provoked the
following bug, which is a result of use before init on a 'struct list_head'.

In nfsd4_list_rec_dir() if the call to dentry_open() fails the 'goto
out' skips INIT_LIST_HEAD() which results in the normally improbable
case where list_entry() returns NULL.

Trace follows.

NFSD: Using /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery as the NFSv4 state recovery directory
SELinux:  Context unconfined_t:object_r:var_lib_nfs_t:s0 is not valid
(left unmapped).
