[PATCH 3.8 023/133] rds: prevent dereference of a NULL device in rds_iw_laddr_check

[Kamal Mostafa]

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

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

From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit bf39b4247b8799935ea91d90db250ab608a58e50 ]

Binding might result in a NULL device which is later dereferenced
without checking.
