From: Ziyang Xuan <william.xuanziyang@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 9d3ff7131877fb092185c369fbb14b57ac4e7cec ] octep_get_link_status() can fail because send mbox message failed, then octep_get_link_status() will return ret less than 0. Excute octep_link_up() as long as ret is not equal to 0 in octep_open() now. That is not correct. The value type of link.state is enum octep_ctrl_net_state. Positive value represents up. Excute octep_link_up() when ret is bigger than 0.
