Subject: [PATCH net-next] macsec: don't free NULL metadata_dst

Commit 0a28bfd4971f added a metadata_dst to each tx_sc, but that's
only allocated when macsec_add_dev has run, which happens after device
registration. If the requested or computed SCI already exists, or if
linking to the lower device fails, we will panic because
metadata_dst_free can't handle NULL.

Reproducer:
    ip link add link $lower type macsec
    ip link add link $lower type macsec

Fixes: 0a28bfd4971f ("net/macsec: Add MACsec skb_metadata_dst Tx Data path support")
