The issue was introduced with backporting upstream commit c16bda37594f ("io_uring/poll: allow some retries for poll triggering spuriously"). Memory allocation can possibly fail causing invalid pointer be dereferenced just before comparing it to NULL value. Move the pointer check in proper place (upstream has the similar location of the check). In case the request has REQ_F_POLLED flag up, apoll can't be NULL so no need to check there.
