i40e: Fix potential invalid access when MAC list is empty
[ Upstream commit a556f06338e1d5a85af0e32ecb46e365547f92b9 ]
list_first_entry() never returns NULL - if the list is empty, it still
returns a pointer to an invalid object, leading to potential invalid
memory access when dereferenced.
Fix this by using list_first_entry_or_null instead of list_first_entry.
