RedCharDevice used for the agent has flow control enabled.
This make possible for red_char_device_write_buffer_get to return NULL.
Handle such situation without crashing avoiding NULL dereference.

This fixes https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=95416.

Hi Frediano

Ack.

I'd like to mention that there may be other cases where
red_char_device_write_buffer_get returns NULL, and
that the case you mentioned is the one happens on
fdo bug 95416 mentioned above.

Regards,
