Add two helpers i40e_(veb|vsi)_get_by_seid() to find corresponding
VEB or VSI by their SEID value and use these helpers to replace
existing open-coded loops.

Hi Ivan,

some minor feedback from my side.

The next part of this function looks like this:

		if (!uplink_veb) {
			dev_info(&pf->pdev->dev,
				 "uplink seid %d not found\n", uplink_seid);
			return NULL;
		}
	}
	/* get veb sw struct */
	veb_idx = i40e_veb_mem_alloc(pf);
	if (veb_idx < 0)
		goto err_alloc;
	veb = pf->veb[veb_idx];
	veb->flags = flags;
	veb->uplink_seid = uplink_seid;
	veb->veb_idx = (uplink_veb ? uplink_veb->idx : I40E_NO_VEB);
	veb->enabled_tc = (enabled_tc ? enabled_tc : 0x1);

	/* create the VEB in the switch */
	ret = i40e_add_veb(veb, vsi);

Smatch complains that vsi may be used uninitialised here.
Which does seem possible to me if vsi_seid is 0.

Yes, the support for floating VEBs is and WAS broken prior this patch 
and it is fixed by the following patch.

Prior this patch... Let's vsi_seid == 0:

	/* make sure there is such a vsi and uplink */
	i40e_pf_for_each_vsi(pf, vsi_idx, vsi)
		if (vsi->seid == vsi_seid)
			break;
-> here vsi_idx == pf->num_alloc_vsi because there cannot be VSI with 
SEID == 0... and VSI points after the pf->vsi[] array.

	if (vsi_idx == pf->num_alloc_vsi && vsi_seid != 0) {
		dev_info(&pf->pdev->dev, "vsi seid %d not found\n",
			 vsi_seid);
		return NULL;
	}

This condition is not met, although vsi_idx == pf->num_alloc_vsi but 
vsi_seid == 0 so the rest of code ended by:

	ret = i40e_add_veb(veb, vsi);

and vsi pointer points to invalid area (item after the last one from 
pf->vsi).

As I mentioned the broken floating VEB functionality (where vsi_seid == 
0 and uplink_seid == 0) is fixed by the following patch.

Thanks,
Ivan

Thanks Ivan,

I see that I flagged a false positive, sorry about that.
I understand things quite a bit better after reading your explanation
above.

In addition to the kdoc stuff that Simon pointed out. Should this null 
check be against veb?

Oops, the check should be against veb here not aganst vsi...
Good eyes, Tony. Thanks, I will fix this.
