vmxnet3: Do not fill stats if device is inactive

Guest OS may issue VMXNET3_CMD_GET_STATS even before device was
activated (for example in linux, after insmod but prior net-dev open).

Accessing shared descriptors prior device activation is illegal as the
VMXNET3State structures have not been fully initialized.

As a result, guest memory gets corrupted and may lead to guest OS
crashes.

Fix, by not filling the stats descriptors if device is inactive.
