Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] ice: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ice_vsi_set_napi_queues

Add NULL pointer checks in ice_vsi_set_napi_queues() to prevent crashes
during resume from suspend when rings[q_idx]->q_vector is NULL.

Tested adaptor:
60:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation Ethernet Controller E810-XXV for SFP [8086:159b] (rev 02)
        Subsystem: Intel Corporation Ethernet Network Adapter E810-XXV-2 [8086:4003]

SR-IOV state: both disabled and enabled can reproduce this issue.

kernel version: v6.18

Reproduce steps:
Bootup and execute suspend like systemctl suspend or rtcwake.

Add defensive checks for both the ring pointer and its q_vector
before dereferencing, allowing the system to resume successfully even when
q_vectors are unmapped.
