Subject: [PATCH] bpf: fix NULL pointer dereference in print_reg_state()
Author: listout@listout.xyz

#syz test

Syzkaller reported a general protection fault due to a NULL pointer
dereference in print_reg_state() when accessing reg->map_ptr without
checking if it is NULL.

The existing code assumes reg->map_ptr is always valid before
dereferencing reg->map_ptr->name, reg->map_ptr->key_size, and
reg->map_ptr->value_size.

Fix this by adding explicit NULL checks before accessing reg->map_ptr
and its members. This prevents crashes when reg->map_ptr is NULL,
improving the robustness of the BPF verifier's verbose logging.
