Syzbot reported uninit-value in asix_mdio_read(). The problem was in
missing error handling. asix_read_cmd() should initialize passed stack
variable smsr, but it can fail in some cases. Then while condidition
checks possibly uninit smsr variable.
Since smsr is uninitialized stack variable, driver can misbehave,
because smsr will be random in case of asix_read_cmd() failure.
Fix it by adding error handling and just continue the loop instead of
checking uninit value.
Added helper function for checking Host_En bit, since wrong loop was used
in 4 functions and there is no need in copy-pasting code parts.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
