[lvc-project] [PATCH 2/2] net: encx24j600: Fix invalid logic in reading of MISTAT register

A loop for reading MISTAT register continues while regmap_read() fails
and (mistat & BUSY), but if regmap_read() fails a value of mistat is
undefined.

The patch proposes to check for BUSY flag only when regmap_read()
succeed. Compile test only.

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