[PATCH] ip: fix error handling in ip_finish_output2()

__neigh_create() returns either a pointer to struct neighbour or PTR_ERR().
But the caller expects it to return either a pointer or NULL.  Replace
the NULL check with IS_ERR() check.

The bug was introduced in a263b3093641fb1ec377582c90986a7fd0625184.

Applied.

Please provide the proper commit log header line text when referencing
another commit, otherwise in trees where the SHA1 IDs are different,
nobody will be able to figure out what you are trying to refer to.

Thanks.
