wl1251: fix potential crash
In case debugfs does not init for some reason (or is disabled on older kernels) driver does not allocate stats.fw_stats structure, but tries to clear it later and trips on a NULL pointer: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 PC is at __memzero+0x24/0x80 Backtrace: [<bf0ddb88>] (wl1251_debugfs_reset+0x0/0x30 [wl1251]) [<bf0d6a2c>] (wl1251_op_stop+0x0/0x12c [wl1251]) [<bf0bc228>] (ieee80211_stop_device+0x0/0x74 [mac80211]) [<bf0b0d10>] (ieee80211_stop+0x0/0x4ac [mac80211]) [<c02deeac>] (dev_close+0x0/0xb4) [<c02deac0>] (dev_change_flags+0x0/0x184) [<c031f478>] (devinet_ioctl+0x0/0x704) [<c0320720>] (inet_ioctl+0x0/0x100) Add a NULL pointer check to fix this.
