3.16.39-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 10c78f5854d361ded4736c1831948e0a5f67b932 upstream.
vlan_insert_tag can return NULL on errors. The bridge loop avoidance code
therefore has to check the return value of vlan_insert_tag for NULL before
it can safely operate on this pointer.
Fixes: 23721387c409 ("batman-adv: add basic bridge loop avoidance code")
