net: tipc: prevent possible null deref of link
`tipc_node_apply_property` does a null check on a `tipc_link_entry` pointer but also accesses the same pointer out of the null check block. This triggers a warning on Coverity Static Analyzer because we're implying that `e->link` can BE null. Move "Update MTU for node link entry" line into if block to make sure that we're not in a state that `e->link` is null. Signed-off-by: Cengiz Can <cengiz@kernel.wtf> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
