I'll give an ACK to the change...

Although I will also note that while the patch does resolve the current
issue and perhaps protect against future errant callers... Currently the
only caller that could get into the hook function with network == NULL
is networkAllocateActualDevice()

Other places that would end up using the hook will bail when iface->type
!= VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_NETWORK or when/by checking
virNetworkObjIsActive(network).

Your other option would seem to be checking "(iface->type ==
VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_NETWORK)" before calling the hook in the validate:
section.
