For PFs, which don't support SRIOV_LAG, there is no pf->lag struct
allocated. So before accessing pf->lag a NULL pointer check is needed.

You need to add a "fixes" tag blaming the commit that introduced the
bug.

Would be also good to CC the author.

of course...

Fixes: 1e0f9881ef79 ("ice: Flesh out implementation of support for SRIOV on
bonded interface")

the bug was introduced later, the tag should be:
Fixes: ec5a6c5f79ed ("ice: process events created by lag netdev event 
handler")

The mentioned commit extracted code into ice_lag_move_new_vf_nodes(),
and there is just one call to this function by now, just after
releasing lag_mutex, so would be good to change the semantics of
ice_lag_move_new_vf_nodes() to "only for lag-enabled flows, with
lag_mutex held", and fix the call to it to reflect that.

Should I resend the patch ?

sometimes that is not strictly needed, but after two possible tags
mentioned that's the best way :)

Thomas.
