Otherwise we deference a NULL pointer.

I saw this while experimenting with libvirt on Xen on ARM, xl already checks
that the command line is non NULL and provides "" as a default.

This is a pretty obvious fix and would be nice to have if we are taking any
more fixes for other stuff , but otherwise I think we can leave to 4.4.1 quite
happily.
