net: mv643xx_eth: fix orphaned statistics timer crash The periodic statistics timer gets started at port _probe() time, but is stopped on _stop() only. In a modular environment, this can cause the timer to access already deallocated memory, if the module is unloaded without starting the eth device. To fix this, we add the timer right before the port is started, instead of at _probe() time.
