Subject: ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix possible NULL deref in lowpan_device_event()
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
[ Upstream commit ca0edb131bdf1e6beaeb2b8289fd6b374b74147d ]
A tun device type can trivially be set to arbitrary value using
TUNSETLINK ioctl().
Therefore, lowpan_device_event() must really check that ieee802154_ptr
is not NULL.
