ring-buffer: Clearly check null ptr returned by rb_set_head_page()

In error case, 'buffer_page' returned by rb_set_head_page() is NULL,
currently check '&buffer_page->list' is equivalent to check 'buffer_page'
due to 'list' is the first member of 'buffer_page', but suppose it is not
some time, 'head_page' would be wild memory while check would be bypassed.
