Subject: CVE-2022-48850: net-sysfs: add check for netdevice being present to speed_show

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net-sysfs: add check for netdevice being present to speed_show

When bringing down the netdevice or system shutdown, a panic can be
triggered while accessing the sysfs path because the device is already
removed.

To prevent this scenario, we also make sure that the netdevice is present.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
