ixgbe: do not call check_link for ethtool in ixgbe_get_settings()
In ixgbe_get_settings() the link status and speed of the interface
are determined based on a read from the LINKS register via the call
to mac.ops.check.link(). This can cause issues where external drivers
may end up with unknown speed when calling ethtool_get_setings().
Instead of calling the mac.ops.check_link() we can report the speed
from the adapter structure which is populated by the driver.
