[PATCH 5/5] staging/lustre/lnet: fix potential null pointer dereference

[Oleg Drokin]

From: Dmitry Eremin <dmitry.eremin@xxxxxxxxx>

Pointer 'ni' checked for NULL at line 1569 may be passed to
function and may be dereferenced there by passing argument 1 to
function 'lnet_ni_notify_locked' at line 1621.
