net/ipv6: Fix a test against 'ipv6_find_idev()' return value
'ipv6_find_idev()' returns NULL on error, not an error pointer. Update the test accordingly and return -ENOBUFS, as already done in 'addrconf_add_dev()', if NULL is returned. Fixes: ("ipv6: allow userspace to add IFA_F_OPTIMISTIC addresses") Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
