From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
The initialisation of pointer ssp is from a dereference on sock->sk
before sock-sk is null checked, hence there is a potential for a
null pointer deference. Fix this by moving the assignment of ssp
to just before it is used in the call to smk_ipv6_check.
Also minor clean up of code to reduce #ifdef noise.
Detected with CoverityScan, CID#1324196 ("Dereference before null check")

Yup. tad frustrating this, the original patch is now going to turn into
a larger change set, which was not my original intent in a trivial bug fix.

I make a habit of not using nested declarations.
I appreciate the intent of the patch, but I would
rather take a more global approach to the cleanup.
