cnic: Fix occasional NULL pointer dereference during reboot.
We register with bnx2x before we allocate ctx_tbl structure, so it is possible for bnx2x to call cnic_ctl before the structure is allocated. This can sometimes cause NULL pointer dereference of cp->ctx_tbl. We fix this by adding simple checking for valid state before proceeding. The cnic_ctl call is RCU protected so we don't have to deal with race conditions. Because of the additional checking, we need to finish the shutdown before clearing the CNIC_UP flag.
