In case force_nonblock happens to be true, the function returns
at:

 2779         if (force_nonblock)
 2780                 return -EAGAIN;

before reaching this line of code. So, the null check on force_nonblock
at 2785, is never actually being executed.

Fixes: 2fb3e82284fc ("io_uring: punt splice async because of inode mutex")
