Subject: [net PATCH] net: dsa: qca8k: fix NULL pointer dereference for of_device_get_match_data

of_device_get_match_data is called on priv->dev before priv->dev is
actually set. Move of_device_get_match_data after priv->dev is correctly
set to fix this kernel panic.

Fixes: 3bb0844e7bcd ("net: dsa: qca8k: cache match data to speed up access")
