Subject: [PATCH net] bridge: netfilter stp fix reference to uninitialized data

The destination mac (destmac) is only valid if EBT_DESTMAC flag
is set. Fix by changing the order of the comparison to look for
the flag first.

Note: no fixes since this bug goes back to pre-git days.
Should go to stable as well.
