Commit Message

The fastrpc_buf_free function currently does not handle the case where
the input buffer pointer (buf) is NULL. This can lead to a null pointer
dereference, causing a crash or undefined behavior when the function
attempts to access members of the buf structure. Add a NULL check to
ensure safe handling of NULL pointers and prevent potential crashes.

Fixes: c68cfb718c8f9 ("misc: fastrpc: Add support for context Invoke method")
