Local cache for an indexed pool is not initialized in the situation when
all the indices are allocated on one CPU core and freed on another one.
That leads to a crash once we try to check its reference counter.
Check that the local cache is initialized before accessing this counter.
Fixes: d15c0946be ("net/mlx5: add indexed pool local cache")
