Subject: [PATCH net 6/6] bnxt_en: Fix NULL pointer dereference at bnxt_free_irq().

When open fails during ethtool -L ring change, for example, the driver
may crash at bnxt_free_irq() because bp->bnapi is NULL.

If we fail to allocate all the new rings, bnxt_open_nic() will free
all the memory including bp->bnapi.  Subsequent call to bnxt_close_nic()
will try to dereference bp->bnapi in bnxt_free_irq().

Fix it by checking for !bp->bnapi in bnxt_free_irq().

Fixes: e5811b8c09df ("bnxt_en: Add IRQ remapping logic.")
