Good catch.  This asymmetry has been present since the lines were first
introduced (all guarded by "if (addr)") in v1.4.1-rc1~3^2~4 (Log peer
address when git-daemon called from inetd, 2006-06-20).

At this point 'addr' is &ss.sa from service_loop, so it really cannot
be NULL.

So fwiw, I like this patch.
