ftrace: allow NULL pointers in mcount_loc
Impact: make ftrace_convert_nops() more permissive Due to the way different architecture linkers combine the data sections of the mcount_loc (the section that lists all the locations that call mcount), there may be zeros added in that section. This is usually due to strange alignments that the linker performs, that pads in zeros. This patch makes the conversion code to nops skip any pointer in the mcount_loc section that is NULL.
