buffer: neuter external nullptr buffers

indutny · rvagg · commit 56673693cd66 · 2015-11-06T11:05:35.000+11:00
Neuter external `nullptr` buffers, otherwise their contents will be materialized on access, and the buffer instance will be internalized. This leads to a crash like this: v8::ArrayBuffer::Neuter Only externalized ArrayBuffers can be neutered Fix: #3619 PR-URL: #3624 Reviewed-By: Ben Noordhuis <info@bnoordhuis.nl> Reviewed-By: Trevor Norris <trev.norris@gmail.com>
