[PATCH 11/14] dccp: check ccid before dereferencing

[Mathias Krause <minipli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

ccid_hc_rx_getsockopt() and ccid_hc_tx_getsockopt() might be called with
a NULL ccid pointer leading to a NULL pointer dereference. This could
lead to a privilege escalation if the attacker is able to map page 0 and
prepare it with a fake ccid_ops pointer.
