[PATCH 4.14 189/193] e1000e: Fix error path in link detection

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Nov 28 2017 - 05:51:46 EST


4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Benjamin Poirier <bpoirier@xxxxxxxx>

commit c4c40e51f9c32c6dd8adf606624c930a1c4d9bbb upstream.

In case of error from e1e_rphy(), the loop will exit early and "success"
will be set to true erroneously.
