[PATCH] net/i40e: validate DDP segment header before use

[Daniil Iskhakov]

rte_pmd_i40e_get_ddp_info() retrieves the I40E segment header with
i40e_find_segment_in_package(). That helper may return NULL if the
segment cannot be found.

The returned pointer is validated only in one code path, while other
branches use it without checking. This can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference when parsing a malformed or incomplete DDP package.

Move the NULL check right before the segment usage so it applies to all
request types needed.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
