Subject: kernel/profile.c: use cpumask_available to check for NULL cpumask

When building with clang + -Wtautological-pointer-compare, these instances
pop up:

kernel/profile.c:339:6: warning: comparison of array 'prof_cpu_mask' not
equal to a null pointer is always true [-Wtautological-pointer-compare]
        if (prof_cpu_mask != NULL)
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~    ~~~~
kernel/profile.c:376:6: warning: comparison of array 'prof_cpu_mask' not
equal to a null pointer is always true [-Wtautological-pointer-compare]
        if (prof_cpu_mask != NULL)
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~    ~~~~
kernel/profile.c:406:26: warning: comparison of array 'prof_cpu_mask'
not equal to a null pointer is always true
[-Wtautological-pointer-compare]
        if (!user_mode(regs) && prof_cpu_mask != NULL &&
                                ^~~~~~~~~~~~~    ~~~~
3 warnings generated.

This can be addressed with the cpumask_available helper, introduced in
commit f7e30f01a9e2 ("cpumask: Add helper cpumask_available()") to fix
warnings like this while keeping the code the same.
