3.16.39-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 60154a1e0495ffb8343a95cefe1e874634572fa8 upstream.
vlan_insert_tag can return NULL on errors. The distributed arp table code
therefore has to check the return value of vlan_insert_tag for NULL before
it can safely operate on this pointer.
Fixes: be1db4f6615b ("batman-adv: make the Distributed ARP Table vlan aware")
