commit fe7738eb3ca3631a75844e790f6cb576c0fe7b00 upstream.
The result of __dev_get_by_index() is not checked for NULL, which then
passed to mlx5e_attach_encap() and gets dereferenced.
Also, in case of a successful lookup, the net_device reference count is
not incremented, which may result in net_device pointer becoming invalid
at any time during mlx5e_attach_encap() execution.
Fix by using dev_get_by_index(), which does proper reference counting on
the net_device pointer. Also, handle nullptr return value when mirred
device is not found.
It's safe to call dev_put() on the mirred net_device pointer, right
after mlx5e_attach_encap() call, because it's not being saved/copied
down the call chain.
Fixes: 3c37745ec614 ("net/mlx5e: Properly deal with encap flows add/del under neigh update")
Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference null return value")
