Btrfs: Check for NULL page in extent_range_uptodate

A user has encountered a NULL pointer kernel oops in btrfs when
encountering media errors.  The problem has been identified
as an unhandled NULL pointer returned from find_get_page().
This modification simply checks for a NULL page, and returns
with an error if found (the extent_range_uptodate() function
returns 1 on errors).

After testing this patch, the user reported that the error with
the NULL pointer oops was solved.  However, there is still a
remaining problem with a thread becoming stuck in
wait_on_page_locked(page) in the read_extent_buffer_pages(...)
function in extent_io.c

       for (i = start_i; i < num_pages; i++) {
               page = extent_buffer_page(eb, i);
               wait_on_page_locked(page);
               if (!PageUptodate(page))
                       ret = -EIO;
       }

This patch leaves the issue with the locked page yet to be resolved.
