Subject: [PATCH] irq: ipi: fix NULL pointer deref in
 irq_data_get_affinity_mask()

Iff ipi_send_{mask|single}() get called with e.g. an invalid IRQ #, all the
local variables there will be NULL -- the problem is that ipi_send_verify()
(that's called first thing) doesn't verify its 'data' parameter, resulting
in a kernel oops in irq_data_get_affinity_mask() as the passed NULL pointer
gets dereferenced.  Add a missing NULL check in ipi_send_verify()...

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

Fixes: 3b8e29a82dd1 ("genirq: Implement ipi_send_mask/single()")
