You can check if it is NULL before assigning it (please see below), so
you won't need this check here.

source_ved should never be NULL, otherwise its is a bug in one of the
submodules.
I think you could the following check (in case we don't trust the
submodules):
if (!source_ved)
break;
before incrementing the pipe_size.
which means that stream->ved_pipeline[] from [0] to
[stream->pipe_size-1] will never be NULL. And you won't need the check
you did in vimc_streamer_pipeline_terminate() and you won't need the "if
(!stream->ved_pipeline[stream->pipe_size-1])" either.
