ibmvnic: Do not attempt to login if RX or TX queues are not allocated
If a device reset fails for some reason, TX and RX queue resources could be released. If a user attempts to open the device in this scenario, it may result in a kernel panic as the driver tries to access this memory. To fix this, include a check before device login that TX/RX queues are still there before enabling the device. In addition, return a value that can be checked in case of any errors to avoid waiting for a completion that will never come.
