Subject: [PATCH] lib/stackdepot.c: fix a condition in stack_depot_fetch()

We should check for a NULL pointer first before adding the offset.
Otherwise if the pointer is NULL and the offset is non-zero, it will
lead to an Oops.

Fixes: d45048e65a59 ("lib/stackdepot.c: check depot_index before accessing the stack slab")
