If rose_route_frame return success we'll dereference a stale pointer.
Likely this is only going to result in bad statistics for the ROSE
interface.

Testers requested.

Please don't use the previous patch; it's broken.  Here's the right one.

[NETROM] Fix possible null pointer dereference.

If in nr_link_failed the neighbour list is non-empty but the node list
is empty we'll end dereferencing a  in a NULL pointer.

This fixes coverity 362.

If rose_route_frame return success we'll dereference a stale pointer.
Likely this is only going to result in bad statistics for the ROSE
interface.

This fixes coverity 946.
