e1000e: cleanup several stats issues
Several stats registers are completely unused and we just waste pci bus time reading them. We also omit using the high 32 bits of the GORC/ GOTC counters. We can just read clear them and only read the low registers. Mii-tool can also break es2lan if it executes a MII PHY register ioctl while the device is in autonegotiation. Unfortunately it seems that several applications and installations still perform this ioctl call periodically and especially in this crucial startup time. We can fool the ioctl by providing fail safe information that mimics the "down" link state and only perform the dangerous PHY reads once after link comes up to fill in the real values. As long as link stays up the information will not change.
