EXT_FIRST_INDEX(ptr) is ptr+12, which can't possibly be null; gcc-12
warns about this.

I was wondering if this was intending to check if path[depth].p_hdr was NULL,
but it is clear from the rest of the code that this could not be true, since
it is already being accessed earlier in the code, so this looks fine.
