If you look at other Linux code, the general pattern is to look if a
function returned an error. If it does, either return immediately, or
jump to the end of the function where the cleanup is.

Since this is a void function:

And then you don't need the

This if can also be removed.

One question i have is, should this really be a void function? What
does it mean if read_poll_timeout() returns an error? Why is it safe
to ignore it? Why not return the error?

If extend_an_new_lp_cnt_limit() fails, what does it mean? Do we
actually want mtk_gphy_cl22_read_status() to indicate something has
gone wrong? Or does extend_an_new_lp_cnt_limit() failing not matter?
