[PATCH] ixgbe_vf: Fix getting link state

[Balazs Nemeth <balazs.nemeth-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

This patch fixes checking the link state of a virtual function. If the
state has already been checked, it does not need to be checked
again. Previously, get_link_status in the ixgbe_hw struct was
used to track if the information had already been updated, but this
field was always set to false.
