r5l_reclaim_thread() already check that 'conf->log' is not NULL in the
beginning, however, r5c_do_reclaim() and r5l_do_reclaim() will
dereference 'conf->log' again, which will cause null-ptr-deref if
'conf->log' is set to NULL from r5l_exit_log() concurrently.
r5l_exit_log() will wait until reclaim_thread() finishes, and then set
conf->log to NULL. So this is not a problem, no?

Thanks,
Song

Fix this problem by don't dereference 'conf->log' again in
r5c_do_reclaim() and r5c_do_reclaim().
