Subject: [PATCH 5.12 125/296] net/mlx5e: Fix null deref accessing lag dev

From: Roi Dayan <roid@...dia.com>

commit 83026d83186bc48bb41ee4872f339b83f31dfc55 upstream.

It could be the lag dev is null so stop processing the event.
In bond_enslave() the active/backup slave being set before setting the
upper dev so first event is without an upper dev.
After setting the upper dev with bond_master_upper_dev_link() there is
a second event and in that event we have an upper dev.
