net: phy: dp83848: check phy_read() return value in config_init()

Browse source

dp83848_config_init() reads BMCR to detect whether auto-negotiation is
enabled, but does not check the phy_read() return value. On an MDIO read
failure phy_read() returns a negative errno, which is then used directly
in a bitwise test; the auto-negotiation state is left undefined while
config_init() still reports success.

Check the return value and propagate the error.
