~1160 mlx5 counters ~= order 4 allocation which is unlikely to succeed
under memory pressure. Convert them to vzalloc() as ethtool_get_regs() does.
Also take care of drivers without counters similar to
commit 67ae7cf1ee ("ethtool: Allow zero-length register dumps again")
and reduce warn_on to warn_on_once.
