The veth peer device is RCU protected, but when the peer device gets
deleted (veth_dellink) then the pointer is assigned NULL (via
RCU_INIT_POINTER).
This patch adds a necessary NULL check in veth_xdp_rcv when accessing
the veth peer net_device.
This fixes a bug introduced in commit
dc82a33297fc ("veth: apply qdisc
backpressure on full ptr_ring to reduce TX drops"). The bug is a race
and only triggers when having inflight packets on a veth that is being
deleted.
