Re: [PATCH v8 5/7] progress.c: add temporary variable from progress struct

> Since 98a13647408 (trace2: log progress time and throughput,
> 2020-05-12) stop_progress() dereferences a "struct progress **"
> parameter in several places. Extract a dereferenced variable (like in
> stop_progress_msg()) to reduce clutter and make it clearer who needs
> to write to this parameter.
>
> Now instead of using "*p_progress" several times in stop_progress() we
> check it once for NULL and then use a dereferenced "progress" variable
> thereafter. This continues the same pattern used in the above
> stop_progress() function, see ac900fddb7f (progress: don't dereference
> before checking for NULL, 2020-08-10).
