[PATCH v2] infiniband: i40iw: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference

From: xiyuyang19
Date: Thu Dec 26 2019 - 08:02:52 EST


From: Xiyu Yang <xiyuyang19@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

in_dev_get may return a NULL object. The fix handles the situation
by adding a check to avoid NULL pointer dereference on idev,
as pick_local_ipaddrs does.
