KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f]

Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 03/27/2024

[Analyze]
In dtInsertEntry(), when the pointer h has the same value as p, after writing
name in UniStrncpy_to_le(), p->header.flag will be cleared. This will cause the
previously true judgment "p->header.flag & BT-LEAF" to change to no after writing
the name operation, this leads to entering an incorrect branch and accessing the
uninitialized object ih when judging this condition for the second time.
[Fix]
After got the page, check freelist first, if freelist == 0 then exit dtInsert()
and return -EINVAL.
