[PATCH net-next] bpf, lpm: fix kfree of im_node in trie_update_elem

From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
Date: 2017-01-24 00:26:53

We need to initialize im_node to NULL, otherwise in case of error path
it gets passed to kfree() as uninitialized pointer.

Fixes: b95a5c4db09b ("bpf: add a longest prefix match trie map implementation")

 Mentioned it in http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/718070/, but
 was probably overlooked.

Great catch.
