Rahul Rameshbabu f55cd31287 net/mlx5e: Do not use ptp structure for tx ts stats when not initialized
The ptp channel instance is only initialized when ptp traffic is first
processed by the driver. This means that there is a window in between when
port timestamping is enabled and ptp traffic is sent where the ptp channel
instance is not initialized. Accessing statistics during this window will
lead to an access violation (NULL + member offset). Check the validity of
the instance before attempting to query statistics.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
