add missing vport return value checks for recent code, as in [1].

Ref:
[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/11/1/315


Where did this patch come from ? real bug ? or just aligning the code to
be according the link below ? because all the use-cases below are supposed to be guaranteed to have a
valid vport object for uplink/pf/and ecpf vportrs, i am not against the
patch, I am just trying to understand if there is a hidden bug somewhere ..

memleak, we need to hit kvfree(flows) below, instead of returning you should make the del_flow conditional and continue
to next steps in the esw_del_fdb_peer_miss_rules routine, e.g:
if (vport)
mlx5_del_flow_rules(flows[vport->index]);

mlx5_del_flow_rules(flows[vport->index]);
