[PATCH 4.14 19/43] ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix possible NULL deref in lowpan_device_event()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <eduma...@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.
