x86/corruption-check: Fix panic in memory_corruption_check() when boot option without value is provided
commit ccde460b9ae5c2bd5e4742af0a7f623c2daad566 upstream. memory_corruption_check[{_period|_size}]()'s handlers do not check input argument before passing it to kstrtoul() or simple_strtoull(). The argument would be a NULL pointer if each of the kernel parameters, without its value, is set in command line and thus cause the following panic. PANIC: early exception 0xe3 IP 10:ffffffff73587c22 error 0 cr2 0x0 [ 0.000000] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper Not tainted 4.18-rc8+ #2 [ 0.000000] RIP: 0010:kstrtoull+0x2/0x10 ...
