Subject: qlcnic: fix unchecked return value

From: Pan Bian <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 91ec701a553cb3de470fd471c6fefe3ad1125455 ]

Function pci_find_ext_capability() may return 0, which is an invalid address. In function qlcnic_sriov_virtid_fn(), its return value is used without validation. This may result in invalid memory access bugs. This patch fixes the bug.
