net/mlx5e: Avoid accessing NULL pointer at ndo_select_queue
To avoid multiply/division operations on the data path, we hold a {channel, tc}==>txq mapping table. We held this mapping table inside the channel object that is being destroyed upon some configuration operations (e.g MTU change). So in case ndo_select_queue occurs during such a configuration operation, it may access a NULL channel pointer, resulting in kernel panic. To fix this issue we moved the {channel, tc}==>txq mapping table outside the channel object so that it will be available also during such configuration operations.
