[PATCH 3/3] Prevent from passing NULL pointer to tcp_v6_md5_do_lookup()

From: Gui Jianfeng <hidden>
Date: 2008-08-05 09:28:29
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [tcp], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Neal Cardwell, Linus Torvalds

If skb->sk == NULL when calling tcp_v6_md5_do_lookup(), kernel
will panic. Don't let this thing happen.
