Sorry, I thought that the caller of dsa_port_bridge_leave() would check
this, but clearly that is not the case.

I see that there's a similar NULL pointer dereference in some patches I
sent today, so I'd better fix that too before they get accepted.

By the way, does this patch compile, with the comma and not the
semicolon, like that?
