4.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanass...@sandisk.com> commit fba332b079029c2f4f7e84c1c1cd8e3867310c90 upstream. Code that dereferences the struct net_device ip_ptr member must be protected with an in_dev_get() / in_dev_put() pair. Hence insert calls to these functions.
