e1000e: 82579 PHY incorrectly identified during init
During init, reading the 2 PHY ID registers back-to-back in the default fast mode could return invalid data (all F's) and in slow mode could return data to the second read the data from the first read. To resolve the issue in fast mode, set to slow mode before any PHY accesses; to resolve the issue in slow mode, put in a delay for every 82579 PHY access. Since this PHY is currently only paired with the pch2lan MAC and the PHY type is not known before the first PHY access which can fail this way, check for this based on MAC-type.
