Upstream doesn't use radix tree any more in migrate.c, no need this patch.

The two functions look up a slot and dereference the pointer,
If the pointer is null, the kernel would crash and dump.

The 'numad' service calls 'migrate_pages' periodically. If some slots
being replaced (Cache Eviction), the radix_tree_lookup_slot() returns
a null pointer that causes kernel crash.

"numad":  crash> bt
[exception RIP: migrate_page_move_mapping+337]

Introduce pointer checking to avoid dereference a null pointer.

Sorry for the delay, now queued up.
