Subject[ 26/37] e1000e: NIC goes up and immediately goes down
3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tushar Dave <tushar.n.dave@intel.com>

commit b7ec70be01a87f2c85df3ae11046e74f9b67e323 upstream.

Found that commit d478eb44 was a bad commit.
If the link partner is transmitting codeword (even if NULL codeword),
then the RXCW.C bit will be set so check for RXCW.CW is unnecessary.
Ref: RH BZ 840642
