Subject: [PATCH] fix uninit value using in tg3_setup_fiber_mii_phy()

From: Alexandr Sapozhnikov <alsp705@...il.com>

There is a way when we go to the goto fiber_setup_done label 
and the condition current_link_up && current_duplex == DUPLEX_FULL 
is met, then the tg3_setup_flow_control() function is executed with 
undefined values of local_adv and remote_adv.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
