From: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com>

The check for cpu hit statistics was not returning immediate false for
any non vport rep netdev and hence we crashed (say on mlx5 probed VFs) if
user-space tool was calling into any possible netdev in the system.

Fix that by doing a proper check before dereferencing.
