Subject: [PATCH 1/4] batman-adv: fix indirect hard_iface NULL dereference

From: Antonio Quartulli <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 15 May 2014 20:50:49 +0200

From: Marek Lindner <[email-masked]>

If hard_iface is NULL and goto out is made batadv_hardif_free_ref()
doesn't check for NULL before dereferencing it to get to refcount.

Introduced in cb1c92ec37fb70543d133a1fa7d9b54d6f8a1ecd
("batman-adv: add debugfs support to view multiif tables").
