syzbot reported a general protection fault caused by a null pointer
dereference in coalesce_fill_reply(). The issue occurs when req_base->dev
is null, leading to an invalid memory access.

This panic occurs if dumping coalesce when no device name is specified.

Fixes: f750dfe825b9 ("ethtool: provide customized dim profile management")
Reported-by: syzbot+e77327e34cdc8c36b7d3@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=e77327e34cdc8c36b7d3

Could you resend with [PATCH net-next] in the subject instead, in this
case? Our build bot trusts the designation in the subject so since this
was submitted as "PATCH net" and patch doesn't apply to net - it
rejected the patch.
