Pavan Kumar Linga 2dabe349f7 idpf: fix null-ptr-deref in idpf_features_check
idpf_features_check is used to validate the TX packet. skb header
length is compared with the hardware supported value received from
the device control plane. The value is stored in the adapter structure
and to access it, vport pointer is used. During reset all the vports
are released and the vport pointer that the netdev private structure
points to is NULL.

To avoid null-ptr-deref, store the max header length value in netdev
private structure. This also helps to cache the value and avoid
accessing adapter pointer in hot path.

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000068

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.
