Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix one NULL pointer dereference in smc_ib_is_sg_need_sync()
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000002ec
PGD 0 P4D 0
Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
CPU: 28 UID: 0 PID: 343 Comm: kworker/28:1 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G OE 6.17.0-rc2+ #9 NONE
Tainted: [O]=OOT_MODULE, [E]=UNSIGNED_MODULE
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.15.0-1 04/01/2014
Workqueue: smc_hs_wq smc_listen_work [smc]

</TASK>
If the software RoCE device is used, ibdev->dma_device is a null pointer.
As a result, the problem occurs. Null pointer detection is added to
prevent problems.
