[PATCH bpf v2] bpf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in bpf_sock_from_file

[Syeda Mahnur Asif]

bpf_sock_from_file should not dereference a NULL file pointer.
KASAN detects a null-ptr-deref when eBPF tracing
fentry/fexit programs are attached to points such as
__mmap_region and file_map_prot_check kernel functions. This can
result in a NULL file pointer flowing from context to the helper.

A minimal check before dereferencing can fix this.
