[ Upstream commit 3d8830266ffc28c16032b859e38a0252e014b631 ]
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
