Hey Roel,
MII_TIMEOUT is a number i made up myself, reasonably small so the driver
won't sit there forever, but higher than 2. While testing the gadget i
discovered that reading MII registers sometimes require more than one
attempt.
Technically you're right. In practice it doesn't matter much. Hitting
the boundary condition mean things are already out of hand.

With `while (i++ < MII_TIMEOUT)' i reaches MII_TIMEOUT + 1 after the loop
This is probably unlikely a problem in practice.
