net: tipc: prevent possible null deref of link
`tipc_node_apply_property` does a null check on a `tipc_link_entry` pointer but also accesses the same pointer out of the null check block. This triggers a warning on Coverity Static Analyzer because we're implying that `e->link` can BE null. Move "Update MTU for node link entry" line into if block to make sure that we're not in a state that `e->link` is null. Signed-off-by: Cengiz Can <cengiz@kernel.wtf> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
