Shaurya Rane 1742974c24 net/hsr: fix NULL pointer dereference in prp_get_untagged_frame()
commit 188e0fa5a6 upstream.

prp_get_untagged_frame() calls __pskb_copy() to create frame->skb_std
but doesn't check if the allocation failed. If __pskb_copy() returns
NULL, skb_clone() is called with a NULL pointer, causing a crash:

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 reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
