[PATCH] driver_macsec_linux.c: fix NULL pointer dereference

[Davide Caratti]

in case wpa_supplicant is using driver_macsec_linux, but macsec module
is not (yet) loaded in the kernel, nl_socket_alloc() fails and drv->sk
is NULL. In this case, don't call libnl functions rntl_link_add() or
rtnl_link_change() using such NULL pointer, to prevent program from
getting segmentation faults like:

 Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
