Subject: [PATCH 5/8] staging: et131x: Fix add_timer() from et131x_open
The error_timer was only getting initialised and an initial jiffies value set following a probe.
This could result in the timer needlessly expiring immediately after et131x_open is called.
Now this is all done from the open call instead.
