[PATCH 4.14 012/173] hv/netvsc: Fix NULL dereference at single queue mode fallback

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit b19b46346f483ae055fa027cb2d5c2ca91484b91 upstream.

The recent commit 916c5e1413be ("hv/netvsc: fix handling of fallback
to single queue mode") tried to fix the fallback behavior to a single
queue mode, but it changed the function to return zero incorrectly,
while the function should return an object pointer.  Eventually this
leads to a NULL dereference at the callers that expect non-NULL
value.

Fix it by returning the proper net_device object.
