Subject: [PATCH net v2 2/3] ibmvnic: fix NULL pointer dereference in ibmvic_reset_crq

crq->msgs could be NULL if the previous reset did not complete after
freeing crq->msgs. Check for NULL before dereferencing them.

v2: add fix tag.
    remove verbose printout, return silently.
    reset function itself will handle the error return.
