clang static analysis reports this problem:

rcutorture.c:1999:2: warning: Called function pointer
  is null (null dereference)
        cur_ops->sync(); /* Later readers see above write. */
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a false positive triggered by an earlier, later ignored
NULL check of sync() op.  By inspection of the rcu_torture_ops,
the sync() op is never uninitialized.  So this earlier check is
not needed.
