Subject: [PATCH] Prevent out-of-bounds read/write in bcmasp_netfilt_rd and bcmasp_netfilt_wr

The functions `bcmasp_netfilt_rd` and `bcmasp_netfilt_wr` both call
`bcmasp_netfilt_get_reg_offset` which, when it fails, returns `-EINVAL`.
This could lead to an out-of-bounds read or write when `rx_filter_core_rl`
or `rx_filter_core_wl` is called.

This patch adds a check in both functions to return immediately if
`bcmasp_netfilt_get_reg_offset` fails. This prevents potential out-of-bounds read
or writes, and ensures that no undefined or buggy behavior would originate from
the failure of `bcmasp_netfilt_get_reg_offset`.
