[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] common/sfc_efx/base: fix the problem of using null pointer

["Min Hu (Connor)" <humin29@huawei.com>]

From: HongBo Zheng <zhenghongbo3@huawei.com>

In function efx_pci_xilinx_cap_tbl_find, pointer entry_offsetp is used
before null pointer check, which may cause access to null pointer.

This patch fix this problem.
