Commit 15faa1f67ab4 ("lan966x: Fix crash when adding interface under a lag")
fixed a similar issue in the lan966x driver caused by a NULL pointer dereference.
The ocelot_set_aggr_pgids() function in the ocelot driver has similar logic
and is susceptible to the same crash.

This issue specifically affects the ocelot_vsc7514.c frontend, which leaves
unused ports as NULL pointers. The felix_vsc9959.c frontend is unaffected as
it uses the DSA framework which registers all ports.

Fix this by checking if the port pointer is valid before accessing it.

Hi,

Does it compile?

Should this be struct ocelot_port *port = ocelot->ports[lag]; ?
