[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/txgbe: fix null pointer check problem

From: HongBo Zheng <zhenghongbo3 at huawei.com>

In function cons_parse_ntuple_filter, item->spec and item->mask
should be confirmed not null before use memcmp on it, current
judgement (item->spec || item->mask) just can confirm item->spec
or item->mask is not null, and cause null pointer be used in
memcmp.

This patch fix this problem.
