mm/slab_common: allow NULL cache pointer in kmem_cache_destroy()
kmem_cache_destroy() does not tolerate a NULL kmem_cache pointer argument and performs a NULL-pointer dereference. This requires additional attention and effort from developers/reviewers and forces all kmem_cache_destroy() callers (200+ as of 4.1) to do a NULL check if (cache) kmem_cache_destroy(cache); Or, otherwise, be invalid kmem_cache_destroy() users. Tweak kmem_cache_destroy() and NULL-check the pointer there. Proposed by Andrew Morton.
