[PATCH net v2] net: phy: smsc: fix printing too many logs

[Dejin Zheng]

Commit 7ae7ad2f11ef47 ("net: phy: smsc: use phy_read_poll_timeout()
to simplify the code") will print a lot of logs as follows when Ethernet
cable is not connected:

[    4.473105] SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720 2188000.ethernet-1:00: lan87xx_read_status failed: -110

The commit will change the original behavior in smsc driver.
It does not has any error message whether it is timeout or
phy_read() fails, but this commit will changed it and print some
error messages by phy_read_poll_timeout() when it is timeout or
phy_read() fails. so use the read_poll_timeout() function to replace
phy_read_poll_timeout() for fix this issue. the read_poll_timeout()
function does not print any log when it goes wrong.

the original codes is that:

	/* Wait max 640 ms to detect energy */
	for (i = 0; i < 64; i++) {
	        /* Sleep to allow link test pulses to be sent */
	        msleep(10);
	        rc = phy_read(phydev, MII_LAN83C185_CTRL_STATUS);
	        if (rc < 0)
	                return rc;
	        if (rc & MII_LAN83C185_ENERGYON)
	                break;
	}

the commit 7ae7ad2f11ef47 ("net: phy: smsc: use phy_read_poll_timeout()
to simplify the code") modify it as this:

	phy_read_poll_timeout(phydev, MII_LAN83C185_CTRL_STATUS,
	                      rc & MII_LAN83C185_ENERGYON, 10000,
	                      640000, true);
	if (rc < 0)
	        return rc;

the phy_read_poll_timeout() will print a error log by phydev_err()
when timeout or rc < 0. read_poll_timeout() just return timeout
error and does not print any error log.

 #define phy_read_poll_timeout(phydev, regnum, val, cond, sleep_us, \
                                timeout_us, sleep_before_read) \
({ \
        int __ret = read_poll_timeout(phy_read, val, (cond) || val < 0, \
                sleep_us, timeout_us, sleep_before_read, phydev, regnum); \
        if (val <  0) \
                __ret = val; \
        if (__ret) \
                phydev_err(phydev, "%s failed: %d\n", __func__, __ret); \
        __ret; \
})

So use read_poll_timeout() to replace phy_read_poll_timeout() for
be consistent with the original code and fix this issue.

Just to re-iterate what i said for v1, this does not explain why -110
is not an error and so should not cause a message to be printed.
