When we add a new GENEVE device with IPv6 remote, checking only for
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6) is not enough as we may disable IPv6 in the
kernel command line (ipv6.disable=1), and calling rt6_lookup() would
cause a NULL pointer dereference.
v2:
- don't mix declarations and code (reported by Stefano Brivio, Eric Dumazet)
- there's no need to use in6_dev_get() as we only need to check that
idev exists (reported by David Ahern). This is under RTNL, so we can
simply use __in6_dev_get() instead (Stefano, Eric).

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.
