Both ip_neigh_gw4() and ip_neigh_gw6() can return either a valid pointer
or an error pointer, but the code currently checks that the pointer is
not NULL.
Fix this by checking that the pointer is not an error pointer, as this
can result in a NULL pointer dereference [1]. Specifically, I believe
that what happened is that ip_neigh_gw4() returned '-EINVAL'
(0xffffffffffffffea) to which the offset of 'refcnt' (0x70) was added,
which resulted in the address 0x000000000000005a.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
