Subject: [PATCH net v3] net: hsr: fix NULL pointer dereference in
 prp_get_untagged_frame()

__pskb_copy() can return NULL if memory allocation fails. When this
happens in prp_get_untagged_frame(), frame->skb_std remains NULL and
is passed to skb_clone(), causing a NULL pointer dereference.

Add a NULL check immediately after __pskb_copy() to return early
when allocation fails.
