[PATCH v2] net: stmmac: clear dma_conf in __stmmac_open error path

[ZhaoJinming <zhaojinming@uniontech.com>]

__stmmac_open() copies the freshly allocated dma_conf into priv->dma_conf
via memcpy() before it can fail, e.g. in stmmac_request_irq().  When it
does fail, the callers free the dma_conf descriptor resources and the
struct itself, but priv->dma_conf still holds pointers to those freed
resources, a use-after-free that triggers when a subsequent
stmmac_release() or another MTU change releases the resources again.

Undo the memcpy in the error path by zeroing priv->dma_conf, leaving the
state consistent regardless of the caller.

Changes in v2:
- Move the clearing of priv->dma_conf from stmmac_change_mtu() into
  __stmmac_open() error path, undoing the memcpy() at the point where it
  was made and covering both callers.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260903-fix-stmmac-mtu-change-use-after-free-v1-1-c81dc7d6d18a@uniontech.com
