Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net: asix: Avoid looping when the device is diconnected

We've seen device access fail with -EPROTO when the device has been
recently disconnected and before the USB core had a chance to handle
the disconnect hub event. It doesn't make sense to continue on trying
to enable host access when the adapter is gone.
