[PATCH iwl-next v3] ixgbe: Fix possible skb NULL pointer dereference

[PATCH iwl-next v3] ixgbe: Fix possible skb NULL pointer dereference

[Piotr Kwapulinski]

The commit c824125cbb18 ("ixgbe: Fix passing 0 to ERR_PTR in
ixgbe_run_xdp()") stopped utilizing the ERR-like macros for xdp status
encoding. Propagate this logic to the ixgbe_put_rx_buffer().

The commit also relaxed the skb NULL pointer check - caught by Smatch.
Restore this check.

Fixes: c824125cbb18 ("ixgbe: Fix passing 0 to ERR_PTR in ixgbe_run_xdp()")
