[PATCH] sched/cpuacct: Check for NULL when using task_pt_regs()
From: Anton Blanchard
Date: Wed Apr 13 2016 - 04:19:16 EST
task_pt_regs() can return NULL for kernel threads, so add a check.
This fixes an oops at boot on ppc64.
Fixes: d740037fac70 ("sched/cpuacct: Split usage accounting into user_usage and sys_usage")
