net/iavf: fix core dump when the link is unstable

Physical link instability may cause a core dump.
Unstable physical links can result in a large number of link
change events.Link change events captured by vf before vf
resources are allocated will result in a core dump.

This commit will check if vf_res is invalid before calling it.

Since we are adjusting the conditional, we might as well fix the
indentation of it while we are at it. We can use up to 100 columns in DPDK
code, so there is no need to split the flags comparison across two lines.
Also the line continuation should not use a single tab indent - that makes
it look part of the body of the "if" statement, not part of the conditional
itself.
Will fix this on apply.

Thanks.
