Subject: net: ethtool: not call vzalloc for zero sized memory request
Git-commit: 3d8830266ffc28c16032b859e38a0252e014b631
Patch-mainline: v5.1-rc4
References: networking-stable-19_04_10
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
