  Coverity flags that the txq variable is used before it's checked for NULL.

Coverity issue: 195023

Fixes: 24853544c84c ("net/i40e: fix mbuf free in vector Tx")

In this occasion I noticed that there is a typo in the code that appears in
the patch;
it should be "Pointer to txq" instead of "Pointer to rxq":
I would consider resending and fixing it on this occasion:

>  if (!txq || !txq->sw_ring) {
>               PMD_DRV_LOG(DEBUG, "Pointer to rxq or sw_ring is NULL");
>                return;
>        }
