[PATCH net v2] pfcp: fix socket lifetime on netdevice registration failure

[Xuanqiang Luo]

From: Xuanqiang Luo <luoxuanqiang@kylinos.cn>

pfcp_newlink() creates the UDP socket before register_netdevice().
If registration fails after pfcp_dev_init() succeeds, the core calls
pfcp_dev_uninit(), which releases the socket and clears pfcp->sk.
The newlink error path then releases it again, causing a NULL pointer
dereference. This was observed with failslab fault injection:

  FAULT_INJECTION: forcing a failure.
  kobject: kobject_add_internal failed for pfcp0 (error: -12 parent: net)

Return from pfcp_del_sock() if pfcp->sk is NULL.
