[PATCH] ipv6: prevent possible NULL dereference in ndisc_recv_na()
From: Ma Ke
Date: Mon Jul 15 2024 - 22:16:24 EST
In ndisc_recv_na(), __in6_dev_get() could return NULL, which is a NULL
pointer dereference. Add a check to prevent bailing out.
Fixes: 7a02bf892d8f ("ipv6: add option to drop unsolicited neighbor advertisements")
