4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 8ffd569aaa818f2624ca821d9a246342fa8b8c50 ]
The check for cpu hit statistics was not returning immediate false for
any non vport rep netdev and hence we crashed (say on mlx5 probed VFs) if
user-space tool was calling into any possible netdev in the system.
Fix that by doing a proper check before dereferencing.
Fixes: 1d447a39142e ('net/mlx5e: Extendable vport representor netdev private data')
