The function mlx5_uplink_netdev_get() gets the uplink netdevice
pointer from mdev->mlx5e_res.uplink_netdev. However, the netdevice can
be removed and its pointer cleared when unbound from the mlx5_core.eth
driver. This results in a NULL pointer, causing a kernel panic.

Ensure the pointer is valid before use by checking it for NULL. If it
is valid, immediately call netdev_hold() to take a reference, and
preventing the netdevice from being freed while it is in use.
