dm log writes: fix check of kthread_run() return value
The kthread_run() function returns either a valid task_struct or ERR_PTR() value, check for NULL is invalid. This change fixes potential for oops, e.g. in OOM situation. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vz@mleia.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
