Subject[PATCH 3.14 201/238] IB/mlx4: Avoid null pointer dereference in mlx4_ib_scan_netdevs()
Date
3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Moni Shoua <monis@mellanox.com>

commit e381835cf1b8e3b2857277dbc3b77d8c5350f70a upstream.

When Ethernet netdev is not present for a port (e.g. when the link
layer type of the port is InfiniBand) it's possible to dereference a
null pointer when we do netdevice scanning.

To fix that, we move a section of code that needs to run only when
netdev is present to a proper if () statement.

Fixes: ad4885d279b6 ("IB/mlx4: Build the port IBoE GID table properly under bonding")
