If we specify a valid CQ ring address but an invalid SQ ring address,
we'll correctly spot this and free the allocated pages and clear them
to NULL. However, we don't clear the ring page count, and hence will
attempt to free the pages again. We've already cleared the address of
the page array when freeing them, but we don't check for that. This
causes the following crash:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000

Check for a NULL array in io_pages_free(), but also clear the page counts
when we free them to be on the safer side.
