Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] ipv4: ip_tunnel: use net namespace from rtable not socket

The socket parameter might legally be NULL, thus sock_net is sometimes
causing a NULL pointer dereference. Using net_device pointer in dst_entry
is more reliable.

Fixes: b6a7719aedd7e5c ("ipv4: hash net ptr into fragmentation bucket selection")
