[PATCH 2/3] Revert "e1000e: Separate signaling for link check/link up"

[Benjamin Poirier]

This reverts commit 19110cfbb34d4af0cdfe14cd243f3b09dc95b013.
This reverts commit 4110e02eb45ea447ec6f5459c9934de0a273fb91.

... because they cause an extra 2s delay for the link to come up when
autoneg is off.

After reverting, the race condition described in the log of commit
19110cfbb34d ("e1000e: Separate signaling for link check/link up") is
reintroduced. It may still be triggered by LSC events but this should not
result in link flap. It may no longer be triggered by RXO events because
commit 4aea7a5c5e94 ("e1000e: Avoid receiver overrun interrupt bursts")
restored reading icr in the Other handler.

As discussed, the driver should be in "maintenance mode". In the interest
of stability, revert to the original code as much as possible instead of a
half-baked solution.
