3.16.57-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com>

commit 1b12580af1d0677c3c3a19e35bfe5d59b03f737f upstream.

Now br_sysfs_if file flush doesn't have attr show. To read it will
cause kernel panic after users chmod u+r this file.

Xiong found this issue when running the commands:

  ip link add br0 type bridge
  ip link add type veth
  ip link set veth0 master br0
  chmod u+r /sys/devices/virtual/net/veth0/brport/flush
  timeout 3 cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/veth0/brport/flush

kernel crashed with NULL a pointer dereference call trace.

This patch is to fix it by return -EINVAL when brport_attr->show
is null, just the same as the check for brport_attr->store in
brport_store().
