In the existing code, iov structure is initialized with iov.iov_base = (void *)
data. If data is NULL,casting (void *) NULL to iov_base results in a null
pointer dereference.Inside the loop of util_ltv_foreach,
util_iov_pull_u8(&iov, &l) is called to pull uint8_t values from iov.
If iov.iov_base (derived from data) is NULL,attempting to dereference it in
util_iov_pull_u8 will cause a segmentation fault.

Added NULL pointer check for data so it will presvent null pointer dereference
