The result of __dev_get_by_index() is not checked for NULL and then gets
dereferenced immediately.
Also, __dev_get_by_index() must be called while holding either RTNL lock
or @dev_base_lock, which isn't satisfied by mlx5e_hairpin_get_mdev() or
its callers. This makes the underlying hlist_for_each_entry() loop not
safe, and can have adverse effects in itself.
Fix by using dev_get_by_index() and handling nullptr return value when
ifindex device is not found. Update mlx5e_hairpin_get_mdev() callers to
check for possible PTR_ERR() result.
Fixes: 77ab67b7f0f9 ("net/mlx5e: Basic setup of hairpin object")
Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference null return value")
