[PATCH] mm/migrate: check for null vma before dereferencing it

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

check if vma is null before dereferencing it, this avoiding any
potential null pointer dereferences on vma via the is_vm_hugetlb_page
call or the direct vma->vm_flags reference.

Detected with CoverityScan, CID#1427995 ("Dereference before null check")
