x86/tsc: Prevent NULL pointer deref in calibrate_delay_is_known()

Browse source

The topology_core_cpumask is used to find a neighbour cpu in
calibrate_delay_is_known(). It might not be allocated at the first invocation
of that function on the boot cpu, when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set.

The mask is allocated later in native_smp_prepare_cpus. As a consequence the
underlying find_next_bit() call dereferences a NULL pointer.

Add a proper check to prevent this.
