ring-buffer: check for failed allocation in ring buffer benchmark
The result of the allocation of the ring buffer read page in the ring buffer bench mark does not check the return to see if a page was actually allocated. This patch fixes that. [ Impact: avoid NULL dereference ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
