[PATCH 4.1 125/202] batman-adv: fix kernel crash due to missing NULL checks

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat Oct 17 2015 - 22:35:41 EST


4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Marek Lindner <mareklindner@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 354136bcc3c4f40a2813bba8f57ca5267d812d15 upstream.

batadv_softif_vlan_get() may return NULL which has to be verified
by the caller.

Fixes: 35df3b298fc8 ("batman-adv: fix TT VLAN inconsistency on VLAN re-add")
