Revert "e1000: no need auto-negotiation if link was down"

Browse Source 
This reverts commit 84dd212024.

I'm not sure what issue the original commit was meant to fix, or if
the logic is actually wrong, but it causes e1000 to stop working
after a guest issues a reset.

>From what I can tell a guest with an e1000 nic has no way of changing
the link status, as far as it's NetClient peer is concerned, except
in the auto-negotiation path, so with this patch in place there's no
recovery after a reset, since the link goes down and stays that way.

Revert this patch now to fix the bigger problem, and handle any
lingering issues with a follow-up.

Reproduced/tested with qemu-jeos and Ubuntu 12.10.
