If "e" is NULL then "bm_ext" would be NULL too.

Found by static analysis and compile tested only.  Sorry.  :/

Hi Dan, 

Thanks for the work with the static analyzer, but the patch is
bogus. The lc_element_by_index() function causes a BUG_ON before
returning a NULL. The next mail contains a patch that removes
the unnecessary conditional expression operator.

  drbd: lc_element_by_index() never returns NULL
