    @cloud-fan ideally it shouldn't be referenced but we recently discovered 
these incorrect patterns in the code (e.g., 
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/14168/files#diff-39298b470865a4cbc67398a4ea11e767L290)
 where the non-nullable branches were not explicitly tested. This change was 
just a defensive measure for codegen to not break in those cases. Let me also 
add a comment here to reduce confusion.
