+Subject: [PATCH] inet: fix NULL pointer Oops in fib(6)_rule_suppress
+
+This changes ensures that the routing entry investigated by the suppress
+function actually does point to a device struct before following that pointer,
+fixing a possible kernel oops situation when verifying the interface group
+associated with a routing table entry.
+
+According to Daniel Golle, this Oops can be triggered by a user process trying
+to establish an outgoing IPv6 connection while having no real IPv6 connectivity
+set up (only autoassigned link-local addresses).
+
+Fixes: 6ef94cfafba15 ("fib_rules: add route suppression based on ifgroup")
