The `if (!snapshot->copy)` evaluates to True only when `snapshot->copy`
is Null. Thus, derefrencing `snapshot->copy` inside this if block is
equivalent to Null pointer derefrencing.
The `if` condition is now changed to evaluate to true only when
`snapshot->copy` is not Null.
This issue was reported by Coverity Scan.
