From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Sep 22 2015 - 14:03:09 EST


3.19.8-ckt7 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Marek Lindner <mareklindner@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 354136bcc3c4f40a2813bba8f57ca5267d812d15 upstream.

batadv_softif_vlan_get() may return NULL which has to be verified
by the caller.

Fixes: 35df3b298fc8 ("batman-adv: fix TT VLAN inconsistency on VLAN re-add")
