For per device operations, cnic needs to dereference the RCU protected cp->ulp_ops instead of the global cnic_ulp_tbl. In 2 locations, cnic_send_nlmsg() and cnic_copy_ulp_stats(), it was referencing the global table. If the device has been unregistered and these functions are still being called (very unlikely scenarios), it could lead to NULL pointer dereference.
