Subject: [PATCH] e1000e: clear REQ and GNT in EECD (82571 && 82572)

Clear the REQ and GNT bit in the eeprom control register (EECD).
This is required if the eeprom is to be accessed with auto read
EERD register.

After a cold reset this doesn't matter but if PBIST MAC test was
executed before booting, the register was left in a dirty state
(the 2 bits where set), which caused the read operation to time out
and returning 0.
