Subject: [PATCH] dccp_diag: LISTEN sockets don't have CCIDs

And thus when we try to use 'ss -danemi' on these sockets that have no
ccid blocks (data collected using systemtap after I fixed the problem):

dccp_diag_get_info sk=0xffff8801220a3100, dp->dccps_hc_rx_ccid=0x0000000000000000, dp->dccps_hc_tx_ccid=0x0000000000000000

We get an OOPS:

mica.ghostprotocols.net login: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer
dereferenc0
IP: [<ffffffffa0136082>] dccp_diag_get_info+0x82/0xc0 [dccp_diag]
PGD 12106f067 PUD 122488067 PMD 0
Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT

Fix is trivial, and 'ss -d' is working again:

[root@...a ~]# ss -danemi
State   Recv-Q Send-Q   Local Address:Port   Peer Address:Port 
LISTEN  0      0                    *:5001              *:*
ino:7288 sk:220a3100ffff8801
	 mem:(r0,w0,f0,t0) cwnd:0 ssthresh:0
[root@...a ~]#
