wifi: mt76: mt7996: avoid null deref in mt7996_stop_phy()

In mt7996_stop_phy() the mt7996_phy structure is dereferenced before the null sanity check which could lead to a null deref.

Fix by moving the dereference operation after the
sanity check.

* You may occasionally put more than 53 characters into text lines of such a change description.

* Would you like to use the term “null pointer dereference” consistently?

* Were any known source code analysis tools involved also for this software improvement?
