Subject: [PATCH net v3 1/3] net: lantiq_xrx200: confirm skb is allocated before using

xrx200_hw_receive() assumes build_skb() always works and goes straight
to skb_reserve(). However, build_skb() can fail under memory pressure.

Add a check in case build_skb() failed to allocate and return NULL.

Fixes: e015593573b3 ("net: lantiq_xrx200: convert to build_skb")
