Commit Message

  Currently pointer iov is being dereferenced before the null check of iov
which can lead to null pointer dereference errors. Fix this by moving the
iov null check before the dereferencing.

Detected using cppcheck static analysis:
linux/arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/pci-sriov.c:597:12: warning: Either
the condition '!iov' is redundant or there is possible null pointer
dereference: iov. [nullPointerRedundantCheck]
 num_vfs = iov->num_vfs;
           ^

Fixes: 052da31d45fc ("powerpc/powernv/sriov: De-indent setup and teardown")
