H A Dena.cdiff b9e80b5280b75f2c641d680245df44b8ff26a7b0 Wed Jan 18 14:19:07 CET 2023 Osama Abboud <osamaabb@amazon.com> ena: Initialize statistics before the interface is available

In [1], the FBSD community exposed a bug in the fbsd/ena driver.

Bug description:
----------------
Current function call order is as follows:

1. ena_attach()
1.1. ena_setup_ifnet()
1.1.1. Registration of ena_get_counter()
1.1.2. ether_ifattach(ifp, adapter->mac_addr);
1.2. Statistics allocation and initialization.

At point 1.1.2, when ether_ifattach() returns, the interface is available,
and stats can be read before they are allocated, leading to kernel panic.

Also fixed a potential memory leak by freeing the stats since they were
not freed in case the following calls failed.

Fix:
----
This commit moves the statistics allocation and initialization to happen
before ena_setup_ifnet()
