Smatch reported the following warning:
    ./tools/testing/selftests/bpf/testing_helpers.c:455 get_xlated_program()
    warn: variable dereferenced before check 'buf' (see line 454)

It seems correct,so let's modify it based on it's suggestion.

Actually,commit b23ed4d74c4d ("selftests/bpf: Fix invalid pointer
check in get_xlated_program()") fixed an issue in the test_verifier.c
once,but it was reverted this time.

Let's solve this issue with the minimal changes possible.

Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1eb3732f-605a-479d-ba64-cd14250cbf91@stanley.mountain/
Fixes: b4b7a4099b8c ("selftests/bpf: Factor out get_xlated_program() helper")
