Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gve: add missing NULL check for gve_alloc_pending_packet() in TX DQO
gve_alloc_pending_packet() can return NULL, but gve_tx_add_skb_dqo()
did not check for this case before dereferencing the returned pointer.
Add a missing NULL check to prevent a potential NULL pointer
dereference when allocation fails.
This improves robustness in low-memory scenarios.
