qeth: avoid crash in case of layer mismatch for VSWITCH
For z/VM GuestLAN or VSWITCH devices the transport layer is configured in z/VM. The layer2 attribute of a participating Linux device has to match the z/VM definition. In case of a mismatch Linux currently crashes in qeth recovery due to a reference to the not yet existing net_device. Solution: add a check for existence of net_device and add a message pointing to the mismatch of layer definitions in Linux and z/VM.
