From: Kairui Song <kasong@xxxxxxxxxxx> When folio is NULL, taking the address of its struct member is an undefined behavior, the UB is caused by applying -> operator to a pointer not pointing to any object. Although in practice this won't lead to a real issue, still better to fix it, also makes the code less error-prone, when folio is NULL, page is also NULL, instead of a meanless offset value.
