[PATCH] net/e1000/base: check PHY link status read

[Artem Novikov]

The Kumeran lock loss workaround checks the PHY link state before
reading the Kumeran diagnostic register. The PHY status read can fail,
but the returned error is ignored and the link output is used
immediately.

Propagate the PHY read error before using the link state so the
workaround does not continue with an invalid status.
