[ Upstream commit ec4fe4bcc5 ]
There is a panic reported that on a system with x722 ethernet, when doing
the operations like:
# ip link add br0 type bridge
# ip link set eno1 master br0
# systemctl restart systemd-networkd
The system will panic "BUG: unable to handle kernel null pointer
dereference at 0000000000000034", with call chain:
i40iw_inetaddr_event
notifier_call_chain
blocking_notifier_call_chain
notifier_call_chain
__inet_del_ifa
inet_rtm_deladdr
rtnetlink_rcv_msg
netlink_rcv_skb
rtnetlink_rcv
netlink_unicast
netlink_sendmsg
sock_sendmsg
__sys_sendto
It is caused by "local_ipaddr = ntohl(in->ifa_list->ifa_address)", while
the in->ifa_list is NULL.
So add a check for the "in->ifa_list == NULL" case, and skip the ARP
operation accordingly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
