[ Upstream commit 0873016d46f6dfafd1bdf4d9b935b3331b226f7c ]
Setting of the port flag `NFP_PORT_CHANGED`, introduced
to ensure the correct reading of EEPROM data, causes a
fatal kernel NULL pointer dereference in cases where
the target netdev type cannot be determined.
Add validation of port struct pointer before attempting
to set the `NFP_PORT_CHANGED` flag. Return that operation
is not supported if the netdev type cannot be determined.
Fixes: 4ae97cae07e1 ("nfp: ethtool: fix the display error of `ethtool -m DEVNAME`")
