Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: tg3: fix obsolete check of !err

From: Jean Sacren <sakiwit@...il.com>

The err variable is checked for true or false a few lines above.  When
!err is checked again, it always evaluates to true.  Therefore we should
skip this check.

We should also group the adjacent statements together for readability.
