pf: counter argument to pfr_pool_get() may never be NULL

Coverity points out that if counter was NULL when passed to
pfr_pool_get() we could potentially end up dereferencing it.
Happily all users of the function pass a non-NULL pointer. Enforce this
by assertion and remove the pointless NULL check.
