ethtool: potential NULL dereference in strset_prepare_data()

Smatch complains that the NULL checking isn't done consistently:

    net/ethtool/strset.c:253 strset_prepare_data()
    error: we previously assumed 'dev' could be null (see line 233)

It looks like there is a missing return on this path.
