In order not to have too much performance impact, the xnpod_read_proc
function does not hold the big lock for too long sections. So, it may
happen that the nkpod pointer become NULL between the time it is read
and the time it is used.
If you want to avoid that, I suppose you should check that nkpod is not
NULL in several other places.
