ucc_geth: Fix NULL pointer dereference in uec_get_ethtool_stats()
In commit 3e73fc9a12679a546284d597c1f19165792d0b83 ("ucc_geth: Fix IO
memory (un)mapping code") I fixed ug_regs IO memory leak by properly
freeing the allocated memory. But ethtool_stats() callback doesn't
check for ug_regs being NULL, and that causes following oops if
'ethtool -S' is executed on a closed eth device:
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000180
Faulting instruction address: 0xc0208228
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
