From: Norbert Zulinski <norbertx.zulinski at intel.com>

When trying to dump VFs VSI RX/TX descriptors
using debugfs there was a crash
due to NULL pointer dereference in i40e_dbg_dump_desc.
Added a check to i40e_dbg_dump_desc that checks if
VSI type is correct for dumping RX/TX descriptors.

Fixes: 02e9c290814c ("i40e: debugfs interface")
