net: ti: icssg-prueth: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference inside e…
…mac_xmit_xdp_frame() There is an error check inside emac_xmit_xdp_frame() function which is called when the driver wants to transmit XDP frame, to check if the allocated tx descriptor is NULL, if true to exit and return ICSSG_XDP_CONSUMED implying failure in transmission. In this case trying to free a descriptor which is NULL will result in kernel crash due to NULL pointer dereference. Fix this error handling and increase netdev tx_dropped stats in the caller of this function if the function returns ICSSG_XDP_CONSUMED.
