net: ethtool: not call vzalloc for zero sized memory request
NULL or ZERO_SIZE_PTR will be returned for zero sized memory request, and derefencing them will lead to a segfault so it is unnecessory to call vzalloc for zero sized memory request and not call functions which maybe derefence the NULL allocated memory this also fixes a possible memory leak if phy_ethtool_get_stats returns error, memory should be freed before exit Signed-off-by: Li RongQing <lirongqing@baidu.com> Reviewed-by: Wang Li <wangli39@baidu.com> Reviewed-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: David S.
