s390/qeth: remove duplicated carrier state tracking
The netdevice is always available, apply any carrier state changes to it without caching them. On a STARTLAN event (ie. carrier-up), defer updating the state to qeth_core_hardsetup_card() in the subsequent recovery action. Also remove the carrier-state checks from the xmit routines. Stopping transmission on carrier-down is the responsibility of upper-level code (eg see dev_direct_xmit()). Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
