Subject: [PATCH net-next] net/mlx5: HWS, check the correct variable in
 hws_send_ring_alloc_sq()

There is a copy and paste bug so this code checks "sq->dep_wqe" where
"sq->wr_priv" was intended.  It could result in a NULL pointer
dereference.

Fixes: 2ca62599aa0b ("net/mlx5: HWS, added send engine and context handling")
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...aro.org>
