  This patches fixes a null pointer derefencing that happens
when the device string passed to the iterator is NULL. This
situation can happen when iterating on a class type.
For example:

RTE_DEV_FOREACH(dev, "class=eth", &dev_iter) {
    ...
}

Given this fix and the next, this seems like an oversight / bug from the
iterator actually.  Those two fixes are still correct but the root cause
should be addressed.
