Subject: [net-next 13/17] i40e: Fix order of checks when enabling/disabling autoneg in ethtool

From: Catherine Sullivan <catherine.sullivan@...el.com>

We were previously checking if autoneg was allowed to change before
checking if autoneg was changing. We need to do this in the other order
or else we will erroneously return EINVAL when autoneg is not changing.
