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 cheking and just continue the loop instead of
checking uninit value.
Fixes: 8a46f665833a ("net: asix: Avoid looping when the device is disconnected")

Changes in v2:
1. Fixed previous wrong approach and changed while loop to for loop
2. Reported-and-tested-by: tag removed, since KMSAN tests can be
false positive. Used Reported-by instead.
