mm,page_owner: check for null stack_record before bumping its refcount
Patch series "page_owner: Fixup and cleanup".
This patchset consists of a fixup by an error that was reported by intel
robot, where it seems to be that by the time page_owner gets initialized,
stackdepot has already depleted its allocation space and returns
0-handles, turning that into null stack_records when trying to retrieve
the stack_record. I was not able to reproduce that from the config
because it booted fine for me, but when setting e.g: dummy_handle to 0
artificially, I could see the same error that was reported.
The second patch is a cleanup that can also lead to a compilation warning.
This patch (of 2):
Although the retrieval of the stack_records for {dummy,failure}_handle
happen when page_owner gets initialized, there seems to be some situations
where stackdepot space has been already depleted by then, so we get
0-handles which make stack_records being NULL for those cases.
Be careful to 1) only bump stack_records refcount and 2) only access
stack_record fields if we actually have a non-null stack_record between
hands.
