    devlink: don't crash if netdev is NULL · 3ea87ca7

    Following change will add support for a corner case where
    we may not have a netdev to pass to devlink_port_type_eth_set()
    but we still want to set port type.
    
    This is definitely a corner case, and drivers should not normally
    pass NULL netdev - print a warning message when this happens.
    
    Sadly for other port types (ib) switches don't have a device
    reference, the way we always do for Ethernet, so we can't put
    the warning in __devlink_port_type_set().
