alx: fix OOB-read compiler warning

The following message shows up when compiling with W=1:

In function ‘fortify_memcpy_chk’,
    inlined from ‘alx_get_ethtool_stats’ at drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/alx/ethtool.c:297:2:
./include/linux/fortify-string.h:592:4: error: call to ‘__read_overflow2_field’
declared with attribute warning: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter);
maybe use struct_group()? [-Werror=attribute-warning]
  592 |    __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size);
      |    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In order to get alx stats altogether, alx_get_ethtool_stats() reads
beyond hw->stats.rx_ok. Fix this warning by directly copying hw->stats,
and refactor the unnecessarily complicated BUILD_BUG_ON btw.
