[PATCH 2.6.27-rc8 3/6] e1000e: remove phy read from inside spinlock

[Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com>]

thanks to tglx, we're finding some interesting reentrancy issues.
this patch removes the phy read from inside a spinlock, paving
the way for removing the spinlock completely.  The phy read was
only feeding a statistic that wasn't used.
