lujie updated ZOOKEEPER-3008:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
After ZK-3006 , I develop a very simple static analysis tool to find other 
Potential NPE like ZK-3006, this bug is found by this tool ;Although i 
carefully studied it, but due to i am a newbie here, hopefully someone can 
confirm it and help me improve this tool.
h2. Bug description:

callee :SecurityUtils#createSaslClient will return null while encounter 
exception
{code:java}
// code placeholder
catch (Exception e) {
  LOG.error("Exception while trying to create SASL client", e);
  return null;
}
{code}
but its caller has no null check just like:
{code:java}
// code placeholder
sc = SecurityUtils.createSaslClient();
if (sc.hasInitialResponse()) {
   responseToken = createSaslToken(new byte[0], sc, learnerLogin);
}
{code}
I think we should add null check in caller while callee return null
