[ Upstream commit a57d5a72f8dec7db8a79d0016fb0a3bdecc82b56 ]
The ndev->npinfo pointer in netpoll_poll_lock() is RCU-protected but is
being accessed directly for a NULL check. While no RCU read lock is held
in this context, we should still use proper RCU primitives for
consistency and correctness.
Replace the direct NULL check with rcu_access_pointer(), which is the
appropriate primitive when only checking for NULL without dereferencing
the pointer. This function provides the necessary ordering guarantees
without requiring RCU read-side protection.
Fixes: bea3348eef27 ("[NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.")
