staging: vt6655: device_rx_srv check sk_buff is NULL
to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree

Subject: staging: vt6655: device_rx_srv check sk_buff is NULL
There is a small chance that pRD->pRDInfo->skb could go NULL
while the interrupt is processing.
Put NULL check on loop to break out.
