[ Upstream commit c0e73276f0fcbbd3d4736ba975d7dc7a48791b0c ]
Function mlxfw_mfa2_tlv_multi_get() returns NULL if 'tlv' in
question does not pass checks in mlxfw_mfa2_tlv_payload_get(). This
behaviour may lead to NULL pointer dereference in 'multi->total_len'.
Fix this issue by testing mlxfw_mfa2_tlv_multi_get()'s return value
against NULL.

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.
