#1678117 — [PATCH] perf/x86/intel/uncore: fix wrong box pointer check

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

Should not init a NULL box. It will cause system crash.
The issue looks like caused by a typo. It is introduced from:

commit fff4b87e594a ("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Make package handling
more robust")

This was not noticed because there is no NULL box. Also, for most
boxes, they are enabled by default. The init code is not critical.
