The aq_xdp_run_prog() function falls back to the XDP_ABORTED action
handler (using a goto) if the operations for any of the other actions fail.
The XDP_ABORTED handler in turn calls the bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action()
tracepoint. However, the function also jumps into the XDP_PASS helper if no
XDP program is loaded on the device, which means the XDP_ABORTED handler
can be run with a NULL program pointer. This results in a NULL pointer
deref because the tracepoint dereferences the 'prog' pointer passed to it.
This situation can happen in multiple ways:
- If a packet arrives between the removal of the program from the interface
and the static_branch_dec() in aq_xdp_setup()
- If there are multiple devices using the same driver in the system and
one of them has an XDP program loaded and the other does not.
Fix this by refactoring the aq_xdp_run_prog() function to remove the 'goto
pass' handling if there is no XDP program loaded. Instead, factor out the
skb building in a separate small helper function.

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.
