From: Nikita Zhandarovich <n.zhandarovich@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c0e73276f0fcbbd3d4736ba975d7dc7a48791b0c ] Function mlxfw_mfa2_tlv_multi_get() returns NULL if 'tlv' in question does not pass checks in mlxfw_mfa2_tlv_payload_get(). This behaviour may lead to NULL pointer dereference in 'multi->total_len'. Fix this issue by testing mlxfw_mfa2_tlv_multi_get()'s return value against NULL. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with static analysis tool SVACE.
