Subject: [PATCH] mdadm/Monitor: Fix NULL pointer dereference when stat2devnm
 return NULL

Wait(): stat2devnm() returns NULL for non block devices. Check the
pointer is valid derefencing it. This can happen when using --wait,
such as the 'f' and 'd' file type, causing a core dump.
such as: ./mdadm --wait /dev/md/
