The commit wasn't needed upstream, as I only sent the original patch after
79e7fff47b7b ("net: remove support for per driver ndo_busy_poll()") had
made the fix unnecessary in Linus' tree.
May've gotten lost in the shuffle due to my poor Fixes tags. The patch in
question applied only on top of the 4.9 stable release at the time, but the
actual NPE had been around in some form since 3.11 / 0602129286705 ("net: add
low latency socket poll").
