Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] mlxsw: Two small fixes

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@...dia.com>

Patch #1 fixes a recent regression that prevents the driver from loading
with old firmware versions.

Patch #2 protects the driver from a NULL pointer dereference when
working on top of a buggy firmware. This was never observed in an actual
system, only on top of an emulator during development.
