Subject: [PATCH 5.17 004/343] net: dsa: felix: fix possible NULL pointer dereference

From: Zheng Yongjun <zhengyongjun3@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit 866b7a278cdb51eb158cd8513bc7438fc857804a ]

As the possible failure of the allocation, kzalloc() may return NULL
pointer.
Therefore, it should be better to check the 'sgi' in order to prevent
the dereference of NULL pointer.

Fixes: 23ae3a7877718 ("net: dsa: felix: add stream gate settings for psfp").
