Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan ab60e82f03 net: qualcomm: rmnet: Fix incorrect assignment of real_dev 
[ Upstream commit d02854dc19 ]

A null dereference was observed when a sysctl was being set
from userspace and rmnet was stuck trying to complete some actions
in the NETDEV_REGISTER callback. This is because the real_dev is set
only after the device registration handler completes.

README 

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.
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.
