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.
