Subject: [PATCH] ethernet: e1000e: Fix possible uninit bug

The variable phy_data should be initialized in function e1e_rphy.
However, there is not return value check, which means there is a
possible uninit read later for the variable.

Shouldn't this be a v2? You are addressing a comment on your original
patch right?
Also please specify the target tree name. This may need a fixes tag also.
