Check the result of dereferencing base_chain->stats, instead of result of this_cpu_ptr with NULL. base_chain->stats maybe be changed to NULL when a chain is updated and a new NULL counter can be attached. And we do not need to check returning of this_cpu_ptr since base_chain->stats is from percpu allocator if it is non-NULL, this_cpu_ptr returns a valid value. And fix two sparse error by replacing rcu_access_pointer and rcu_dereference with READ_ONCE under rcu_read_lock. Thanks for Eric's help to finish this patch.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
