As part of ib_uverbs_remove_one which might be triggered upon
reset flow, we trigger IB_EVENT_DEVICE_FATAL event to userspace
application.
If device was removed after uverbs fd was opened but before
ib_uverbs_get_context was called, the event file will be accessed
before it was allocated, result in NULL pointer dereference:

Fix it by checking that user context was allocated before
trigger the event.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
