[net-2.6 PATCH 5/6] e1000e: delay second read of PHY_STATUS register on failure of first read

[Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>]

From: Bruce Allan <bruce.w.allan@intel.com>

Some PHYs may require two reads of the PHY_STATUS register to determine the
link status.  If the PHY is being accessed by another thread it is possible
the first read could timeout and fail.  In this case, put a delay in so
the second read will pick up the correct link status.
