Can't we just get lustre to handle the NULL pointer?
Is most cases, the pointer is accessed through an accessor function, and
on !CONFIG_SMP, that can be a static inline that doesn't even look at
the pointer.

I really think this is a step backwards.  If you can identify specific
problems caused by the current code, I'm sure we can fix them.

This bug doesn't seem to mention this patch at all

Nor does this review.

Thanks,
