lwtunnel: check return value of nla_nest_start
Function nla_nest_start() may return a NULL pointer on error. However, in function lwtunnel_fill_encap(), the return value of nla_nest_start() is not validated before it is used. This patch checks the return value of nla_nest_start() against NULL. Signed-off-by: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@163.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
