net: Potential null skb->dev dereference
When doing "ifenslave -d bond0 eth0", there is chance to get NULL dereference in netif_receive_skb(), because dev->master suddenly becomes NULL after we tested it. We should use ACCESS_ONCE() to avoid this (or rcu_dereference()) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
