Subject: [PATCH 4.9 08/71] ieee802154: lowpan_header_create check must check daddr

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

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

From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit 40c3ff6d5e0809505a067dd423c110c5658c478c ]

Packet sockets may call dev_header_parse with NULL daddr. Make
lowpan_header_ops.create fail.
