Subject: [PATCH v2 net] net: usb: sr9700: fix uninitialized variable use in sr_mdio_read

It could lead to error happen because the variable res is not updated if
the call to sr_share_read_word returns an error. In this particular case
error code was returned and res stayed uninitialized.

This can be avoided by checking the return value of sr_share_read_word
and propagating the error if the read operation failed.

Found by code review.
