[PATCH] uprobes: Fix NULL pointer dereference in hprobe_expire()

Forking a task that has a pending uretprobe can oops the kernel with a
NULL pointer dereference in the clone() path:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018
  Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP NOPTI
  RIP: 0010:hprobe_expire
  CR2: 0000000000000018
  Call Trace:
   uprobe_copy_process
   copy_process
   kernel_clone
   __x64_sys_clone
   do_syscall_64
   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe

This was found on real hosts on Meta fleet.

I've got the impression that this is what is happening:

  CPU 1                          CPU 2 (traced task)
  -----                          -------------------
                                 hit uprobe, prepare_uretprobe():
                                   hprobe LEASED, refcount >= 1
  uprobe_unregister()
    put_uprobe(): refcount -> 0
                                 fork() -> dup_utask()
                                   hprobe_expire(hprobe, true)
                                     try_get_uprobe() -> NULL
                                     get_uprobe(NULL)   <-- Oops

Only take the extra reference when the uprobe is non-NULL; a NULL means
it is gone and is the correct value to return.
