Now we support sharing one big page when PAGE_SIZE is not equal 4096.
4096 bytes is the default stripe size. To support this it adds a
page offset array in raid5_percpu's scribble. It passes the page
offset array to async_xor_offs. But there are some users that don't
use the page offset array. In raid5-ppl.c, async_xor passes NULL to
asynx_xor_offs. So it needs to check src_offs is NULL or not.

Fixes: ceaf2966ab08(async_xor: increase src_offs when dropping destination page)

Oleksandr,

Could you please verify this fixes the issue, and reply with your Tested-by?

Thanks,
Song

I can confirm that this patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference issue for me.
Thanks for the fix!
