Subject: [PATCH][net-next] esp6: fix incorrect null pointer check on xo

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

The check for xo being null is incorrect, currently it is checking
for non-null, it should be checking for null.

Detected with CoverityScan, CID#1429349 ("Dereference after null check")
