From: Shmulik Ladkani <shmulik.ladk...@ravellosystems.com>
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.
