Subject: flow_dissector: Update pptp handling to avoid null pointer deref.
From: Ian Kumlien <ian.kumlien@gmail.com>
[ Upstream commit d0af683407a26a4437d8fa6e283ea201f2ae8146 ]
__skb_flow_dissect can be called with a skb or a data packet, either
can be NULL. All calls seems to have been moved to __skb_header_pointer
except the pptp handling which is still calling skb_header_pointer.
skb_header_pointer will use skb->data and thus:
