Subject: [PATCH 5.5 006/120] RDMA/i40iw: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference

From: Xiyu Yang <xiyuyang19@...an.edu.cn>

commit 04db1580b5e48a79e24aa51ecae0cd4b2296ec23 upstream.

A NULL pointer can be returned by in_dev_get(). Thus add a corresponding
check so that a NULL pointer dereference will be avoided at this place.

Fixes: 8e06af711bf2 ("i40iw: add main, hdr, status")
