Subject: CVE-2025-21775: can: ctucanfd: handle skb allocation failure

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

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

can: ctucanfd: handle skb allocation failure

If skb allocation fails, the pointer to struct can_frame is NULL. This
is actually handled everywhere inside ctucan_err_interrupt() except for
the only place.

Add the missed NULL check.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE static
analysis tool.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-21775 to this issue.

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:
