This change is more appropriate, as suggested by Herbert Xu[1]. The function is called with the RTNL mutex held, and the pointer is being dereferenced later, so, dereference earlier and just reuse the pointer for the if/else. The replacement ensures correct pointer access while maintaining the existing locking and RCU semantics of the netpoll subsystem.
