tx-frames 0 is a valid coalescing request: it only stops the frame count
from raising TX completion interrupts, while the coalescing timer armed
by stmmac_tx_timer_arm() keeps reclaiming the descriptors. That is why
stmmac_xmit(), stmmac_tso_xmit() and stmmac_xdp_xmit_zc() all test
priv->tx_coal_frames[queue] before taking the modulo, and why
__stmmac_set_coalesce() rejects the request only when tx-usecs is zero
as well, since then nothing would complete the transmissions.
stmmac_xdp_xmit_xdpf() is the one transmit path that takes the modulo
without the test, so
ethtool -C eth0 tx-usecs 10 tx-frames 0
followed by an XDP_TX or an ndo_xdp_xmit frame divides by zero, which
oopses in softirq context on the architectures that trap on a zero
divisor.
Add the missing test, which leaves set_ic false exactly like the other
transmit paths do.

v3:
- New patch. stmmac_xdp_xmit_xdpf() is the only transmit path that divides
by tx_coal_frames[queue] without a zero test; add the missing test the
way stmmac_xdp_xmit_zc() has it. (Sashiko review)
