net: sfp: read eeprom in maximum 16 byte increments
commit 28e74a7c upstream. Some SFP modules do not like reads longer than 16 bytes, so read the EEPROM in chunks of 16 bytes at a time. This behaviour is not specified in the SFP MSAs, which specifies: "The serial interface uses the 2-wire serial CMOS E2PROM protocol defined for the ATMEL AT24C01A/02/04 family of components." and "As long as the SFP+ receives an acknowledge, it shall serially clock out sequential data words. The sequence is terminated when the host responds with a NACK and a STOP instead of an acknowledge." We must avoid breaking a read across a 16-bit quantity in the diagnostic page, thankfully all 16-bit quantities in that page are naturally aligned.
