skip data conversion in compat_sys_mount when data_page is NULL

OpenVZ Linux kernel team has found a problem with mounting in compat mode.

Simple command "mount -t smbfs ..." on Fedora Core 5 distro in 32-bit mode
leads to oops:

The problem is that data_page pointer can be NULL, so we should skip data
conversion in this case.
