Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 03/12] ice: Don't tx before switchdev is fully configured

From: Wojciech Drewek <wojciech.drewek@...el.com>

There is possibility that ice_eswitch_port_start_xmit might be
called while some resources are still not allocated which might
cause NULL pointer dereference. Fix this by checking if switchdev
configuration was finished.
