bpf, libbpf, smatch: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential NULL
pointer dereference check:
tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.c:3493
bpf_prog_load_xattr() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'attr'
(see line 3483)
3479 int bpf_prog_load_xattr(const struct bpf_prog_load_attr *attr,
3480 struct bpf_object **pobj, int *prog_fd)
3481 {
3482 struct bpf_object_open_attr open_attr = {
3483 .file = attr->file,
3484 .prog_type = attr->prog_type,
^^^^^^
3485 };
At the head of function, it directly access 'attr' without checking
if it's NULL pointer. This patch moves the values assignment after
validating 'attr' and 'attr->file'.
