net/mlx5e: Check netdev pointer before checking its net ns

Browse Source 
Previously, when comparing the net namespaces, the case where the netdev
doesn't exist wasn't taken into account, and therefore can cause a crash.
In such a case, the comparing function should return false, as there is no
netdev->net to compare the devlink->net to.

Furthermore, this will result in an attempt to enter switchdev mode
without a netdev to fail, and which is the desired result as there is no
meaning in switchdev mode without a net device.
