[PATCH] IPVS Bug, Null ptr in ip_vs_ctl.c ip_vs_genl_dump_daemons().

To: lvs-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, netfilter-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, netfilter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Subject: [PATCH] IPVS Bug, Null ptr in ip_vs_ctl.c ip_vs_genl_dump_daemons().
Cc: Hans Schillstrom <hans@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Julian Anastasov <ja@xxxxxx>, Patrick McHardy <kaber@xxxxxxxxx>, Simon Horman <horms@xxxxxxxxxxxx>, Hans Schillstrom <hans.schillstrom@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

From: Hans Schillstrom <hans.schillstrom@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

ipvsadm -ln --daemon will trigger a Null pointer exception because
ip_vs_genl_dump_daemons() uses skb_net() instead of skb_sknet().

To prevent others from NULL ptr a check is made in ip_vs.h skb_net().
