perf tools: Move dereference after NULL test
In each case, if the NULL test on thread is needed, then the dereference should be after the NULL test. A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this problem is as follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/): // <smpl> @match exists@ expression x, E; identifier fld; @@ * x->fld ... when != \(x = E\|&x\) * x == NULL // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> LKML-Reference: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0910170842500.9213@ask.diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
