I think the NULL checks still make sense and if you agree I would keep
the others just as sanity checks.

OK, the additional checks don't hurt.
I tested the latest version of the patch and all the interface entry
points I could test work fine.
As discussed with Sumit, winbind supports the name@domain notation.
Because it might be useful to support that from sssd, too, I filed
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/2414 to track that.
ACK to the patch.
