hi,

spotted by coverity (id #539), we should use the define
with which the array is defined. We use min_agc as index
for e1000_igp_2_cable_length_table[IGP02E1000_AGC_LENGTH_TABLE_SIZE]
This patch also adds the -1 to make it safe so that we dont read
past the end of the array.

NACK. This is corrected in the latest patch series that Auke
submitted to the kernel. The correction is in [PATCH 18/21] e1000:
integrate ich8 support into driver.
