    Guards against null-pointer during schema validation

    This edit fixes a null-pointer exception which we encountered during 
testing. Truncated stack trace:
    ```
    [2016-04-04 18:27:03,667] ERROR CRITICAL: Failed to serialize offset data, 
making it impossible to commit offsets under namespace 
test-fileconnector-source. This likely won't recover unless the unserializable 
partition or offset information is overwritten.
