Subject: [PATCH 5.18 315/879] net: dsa: qca8k: correctly handle mdio read error

From: Ansuel Smith <ansuelsmth@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 6cfc03b602200c5cbbd8d906fd905547814e83df ]

Restore original way to handle mdio read error by returning 0xffff.
This was wrongly changed when the internal_mdio_read was introduced,
now that both legacy and internal use the same function, make sure that
they behave the same way.

Fixes: ce062a0adbfe ("net: dsa: qca8k: fix kernel panic with legacy mdio mapping")
