Subject: [PATCH net] ethtool: Fix NULL pointer dereference during module EEPROM dump

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@...dia.com>

When get_module_eeprom_by_page() is not implemented by the driver, NULL
pointer dereference can occur [1].

Fix by testing if get_module_eeprom_by_page() is implemented instead of
get_module_info().
