[PATCH] net: core: Fix possible null-pointer dereference in failover_slave_register()

[Tuo Li <islituo@gmail.com>]

The variable fops is checked in:
  if (fops && fops->slave_pre_register &&
    fops->slave_pre_register(slave_dev, failover_dev))

This indicates that it can be NULL.
However, it is dereferenced when calling netdev_rx_handler_register():
  err = netdev_rx_handler_register(slave_dev, fops->slave_handle_frame,
                    failover_dev);

To fix this possible null-pointer dereference, check fops first, and if 
it is NULL, assign -EINVAL to err.
