Subject: [PATCH 4.9 41/96] mlxsw: spectrum_router: Fix NULL pointer deref

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

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


[ Upstream commit 8764a8267b128405cf383157d5e9a4a3735d2409 ]

When we remove the neighbour associated with a nexthop we should always
refuse to write the nexthop to the adjacency table. Regardless if it is
already present in the table or not.

Otherwise, we risk dereferencing the NULL pointer that was set instead
of the neighbour.
