[PATCH 3.2 044/110] NET: ROSE: Don't dereference NULL neighbour pointer.

[Ben Hutchings]

3.2.71-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Ralf Baechle <ralf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d496f7842aada20c61e6044b3395383fa972872c upstream.

A ROSE socket doesn't necessarily always have a neighbour pointer so check
if the neighbour pointer is valid before dereferencing it.
