[PATCH] stmmac: fix pointer check after utilization in stmmac_interrupt

[Maxim Petrov <mmrmaximuzz@gmail.com>]

The paranoidal pointer check in IRQ handler looks very strange - it
really protects us only against bogus drivers which request IRQ line
with null pointer dev_id. However, the code fragment is incorrect
because the dev pointer is used before the actual check. That leads
to undefined behavior thus compilers are free to remove the pointer
check at all.
