[PATCH][next] batman-adv: don't pass a NULL hard_iface to batadv_hardif_put

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

In the case where hard_iface is NULL, the error path may pass a null
pointer to batadv_hardif_put causing a null pointer dereference error.
Avoid this by only calling the function if  hard_iface not null.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1466456 ("Explicit null dereferenced")

Fixes: 53dd9a68ba68 ("batman-adv: add multicast flags netlink support")
