Inside macsec_add_dev() we free percpu macsec->secy.tx_sc.stats and
macsec->stats on some of the memory allocation failure paths. However, the
net_device is already registered to that moment: in macsec_newlink(), just
before calling macsec_add_dev(). This means that during unregister process
its priv_destructor - macsec_free_netdev() - will be called and will free
the stats again.

Remove freeing percpu stats inside macsec_add_dev() because
macsec_free_netdev() will correctly free the already allocated ones. The
pointers to unallocated stats stay NULL, and free_percpu() treats that
correctly.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.
