In case we have specified a SFP and an I2C phandle in the Device Tree,
but we somehow failed to look up the I2C adapter (e.g: the driver is not
enabled), we will leave dangling socket_ops, and the sfp_bus will still
have been registered. We can then observe NULL pointer dereferences
while doing ethtool -m:

[   20.218613] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000008
[   20.226977] pgd = (ptrval)
[   20.229785] [00000008] *pgd=7c400831, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000
[   20.236274] Internal error: Oops: 17 [#1] SMP ARM
[   20.241122] Modules linked in:
[   20.244278] CPU: 0 PID: 1480 Comm: ethtool Not tainted 4.19.0-rc3 #138
[   20.251013] Hardware name: Broadcom Northstar Plus SoC
[   20.256316] PC is at sfp_get_module_info+0x8/0x10
[   20.261172] LR is at dev_ethtool+0x218c/0x2afc

Specifically guard against that.
