On a couple of abort packet paths skb dequeuing may end up with
returning NULL, which, in turn, may end up with further null
pointer dereference.
Fix it by checking the return value of skb dequeuing.
Found by Linux Verification Center(linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Honestly I have no clue about cxgbit, but to avoid null pointer
dereference, shouldn't it be "if (rpl_skb) {"?
Yes it should. Thanks for finding that. I'll resend the patch.
Frankly, I have no clue about cxgbit as well, so may be there is a
better way to cope with the null pointer issue here.
