error: ‘txq’ may be used uninitialized in this function
[-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
if (txq->pool_free == nicvf_single_pool_free_xmited_buffers)
~~~^~~~~~~~~~~
.../drivers/net/thunderx/nicvf_ethdev.c:886:20:
note: ‘txq’ was declared here
struct nicvf_txq *txq;
^~~
Same error on function 'nicvf_eth_dev_init' and 'nicvf_dev_start', it
seems 'nicvf_set_tx_function' inlined when optimization enabled.
Initialize the txq and add NULL check before using it to fix.
Fixes: 7413feee662d ("net/thunderx: add device start/stop and close")
