Subject: [PATCH] selftests: net: devlink_port_split: check devlink returned an element before dereferencing it

And thus avoid a Python stacktrace:

~/linux/tools/testing/selftests/net$ ./devlink_port_split.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/linux/tools/testing/selftests/net/./devlink_port_split.py",
line 277, in <module> main()
  File "/home/linux/tools/testing/selftests/net/./devlink_port_split.py",
line 242, in main
    dev = list(devs.keys())[0]
IndexError: list index out of range
