bnxt_en: fix module unload sequence

Browse source

[ Upstream commit 927069d5c4 ]

Recent updates to the PTP part of bnxt changed the way PTP FIFO is
cleared, skbs waiting for TX timestamps are now cleared during
ndo_close() call. To do clearing procedure, the ptp structure must
exist and point to a valid address. Module destroy sequence had ptp
clear code running before netdev close causing invalid memory access and
kernel crash. Change the sequence to destroy ptp structure after device
close.
