The __ethtool_get_link_ksettings symbol will be exported,
and external users may use an illegal address.
We should check the parameters before using them,
otherwise the system will crash.

I do not believe dev can possibly be NULL at this point.

I tried to find an appropriate Fixes: tag.

It seems this particular bug was added either by

Fixes: 9856909c2abb ("net: bonding: use __ethtool_get_ksettings")

or generically in :

Fixes: 3f1ac7a700d0 ("net: ethtool: add new ETHTOOL_xLINKSETTINGS API")

In fact, "dev->ethtool_ops" is a null pointer in my environment.
I didn't get the case where "dev" is a null pointer.
Maybe "if (!dev->ethtool_ops)" is more accurate for this bug.

I found this bug in version 3.10, the function name was __ethtool_get_settings.
After 3f1ac7a700d0 ("net: ethtool: add new ETHTOOL_xLINKSETTINGS API"),
This function evolved into __ethtool_get_link_ksettings.

dev can't be a null pointer since bond driver guarantees that
and there is a check for the case where it could be null in 
bond_slave_netdev_event.

You can drop the "!dev" check, since also it should be the caller
responsibility and we should avoid cluttering the net core code with
such redundant checks.

Also i am not sure about this, could be a bug in the device driver your
enslaving.

alloc_netdev_mqs will assign &default_ethtool_ops to dev->ethtool_ops ,
if user provided setup callback didn't assign the driver specific
ethtool_ops.

so the device driver must be doing something wrong, overwriting defult
ethtool_ops with a NULL pointer maybe ? and why ?

Dongxu said he encountered the null pointer dereference in a 3.10
kernel, not current mainline. But commit 2c60db037034 ("net: provide a
default dev->ethtool_ops") which introduced default_ethtool_ops came in
3.7-rc1 so 3.10 should have it already. There is indeed something wrong.

I don't think we should add either check unless we positively know that
dev->ethtool_ops can be null with current mainline kernel. And even
then, it would probably be more appropriate to fix the code which caused
it.
