Subject: [PATCH v5.15 2/2] net/ipv6: prevent NULL dereference in ip6_output()

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

[Upstream commit 4db783d68b9b39a411a96096c10828ff5dfada7a]

According to syzbot, there is a chance that ip6_dst_idev()
returns NULL in ip6_output(). Most places in IPv6 stack
deal with a NULL idev just fine, but not here.

syzbot reported:
