Subject: [PATCH 1/4] net: macb: Check MDIO state before read/write and use timeouts

From: Harini Katakam <harinik@...inx.com>

Replace the while loop in MDIO read/write functions with a timeout.
In addition, add a check for MDIO bus busy before initiating a new
operation as well to make sure there is no ongoing MDIO operation.
