In case we got an FDB notification for a port that doesn't exist we
execute an FDB entry delete to prevent it from re-appearing the next
time we poll for notifications.
If the operation failed we would trigger a NULL pointer dereference as
'mlxsw_sp_port' is NULL.
Fix it by reporting the error using the underlying bus device instead.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
