Ian Rogers c969a9d7bb perf branch: Avoid incrementing NULL
If the entry is NULL the value is meaningless so early return NULL to
avoid an increment of NULL. This was happening in calls from
has_stitched_lbr when running the "perf record LBR tests". The return
value isn't used in that case, so returning NULL as no effect.
