CVE-2025-22018 atm: Fix NULL pointer dereference
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

atm: Fix NULL pointer dereference

When MPOA_cache_impos_rcvd() receives the msg, it can trigger
Null Pointer Dereference Vulnerability if both entry and
holding_time are NULL. Because there is only for the situation
where entry is NULL and holding_time exists, it can be passed
when both entry and holding_time are NULL. If these are NULL,
the entry will be passd to eg_cache_put() as parameter and
it is referenced by entry->use code in it.
