sfc: fix crash when reading stats while NIC is resetting

efx_net_stats() (.ndo_get_stats64) can be called during an ethtool
 selftest, during which time nic_data->mc_stats is NULL as the NIC has
 been fini'd.  In this case do not attempt to fetch the latest stats
 from the hardware, else we will crash on a NULL dereference:
    BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000038
    RIP efx_nic_update_stats
    abridged calltrace:
    efx_ef10_update_stats_pf
    efx_net_stats
    dev_get_stats
    dev_seq_printf_stats
Skipping the read is safe, we will simply give out stale stats.
To ensure that the free in efx_ef10_fini_nic() does not race against
 efx_ef10_update_stats_pf(), which could cause a TOCTTOU bug, take the
 efx->stats_lock in fini_nic (it is already held across update_stats).
