From: Moni Shoua <monis@mellanox.com>

When Ethernet netdev is not present for a port (e.g. when the link
layer type of the port is InfiniBand) it's possible to dereference
a null pointer when we do netdevice scanning.

To fix that, we move a section of code that needs to run only when
netdev is present to a proper if () statement.

Fixes: ad4885d2 ('IB/mlx4: Build the port IBoE GID table properly under bonding')
