Subject: [PATCH net-next v1 07/11] net: usb: lan78xx: Use ETIMEDOUT instead of ETIME in lan78xx_stop_hw

Update `lan78xx_stop_hw` to return `-ETIMEDOUT` instead of `-ETIME` when
a timeout occurs. While `-ETIME` indicates a general timer expiration,
`-ETIMEDOUT` is more commonly used for signaling operation timeouts and
provides better consistency with standard error handling in the driver.
