[PATCH 4.19 159/271] iavf: fix dereference of null rx_buffer pointer

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Jul 25 2019 - 11:02:13 EST


[ Upstream commit 9fe06a51287b2d41baef7ece94df34b5abf19b90 ]

A recent commit efa14c3985828d ("iavf: allow null RX descriptors") added
a null pointer sanity check on rx_buffer, however, rx_buffer is being
dereferenced before that check, which implies a null pointer dereference
bug can potentially occur. Fix this by only dereferencing rx_buffer
until after the null pointer check.
