In bug 1258410, special exception was added to abort early should a member be null.

However, the fix was invalid as it didn't return !

bug 1258410 contained two fixes. I believe the 2nd fix https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/baa3826260a0 prevent the problems from ever occurring, but better be safe than sorry.

the issue won't occur in nightly as the code was removed in bug 1259274

Approval Request Comment
[Feature/regressing bug #]: bug 1258410
[User impact if declined]: Potential crashes due to null dereference
[Describe test coverage new/current, TreeHerder]: Lots of media mochitests, Aurora try: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=2c15f18f244d , Beta try: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=1afdeaf94173
[Risks and why]: No risks that I can see, as it's just adding an early "return;", and there are other early returns in the same method.
[String/UUID change made/needed]: None.
