Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/2] r8169: remove duplicated RTL8169s PHY
 initialization steps

Setting register 0x82 to value 01 is done a few lines before for all
chip versions <= 06 anyway. And setting PHY register 0x0b to value 00
is done at the end of rtl8169s_hw_phy_config() already. So we can
remove this.
