bridge: mrp: Fix out-of-bounds read in br_mrp_parse
The issue was reported by syzbot. When the function br_mrp_parse was called with a valid net_bridge_port, the net_bridge was an invalid pointer. Therefore the check br->stp_enabled could pass/fail depending where it was pointing in memory. The fix consists of setting the net_bridge pointer if the port is a valid pointer.
