A sysfs reader can race with a device reset or removal, attempting to
read device state when the device is not actually present. eg:

 crash> struct net_device.state ffff9a9d21336000
    state = 5,

state 5 is __LINK_STATE_START (0b1) and __LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER (0b100).
The device is not present, note lack of __LINK_STATE_PRESENT (0b10).

This is the same sort of panic as observed in commit 4224cfd7fb65
("net-sysfs: add check for netdevice being present to speed_show").

There are many other callers of __ethtool_get_link_ksettings() which
don't have a device presence check.

Move this check into ethtool to protect all callers.

Fixes: d519e17e2d01 ("net: export device speed and duplex via sysfs")
Fixes: 4224cfd7fb65 ("net-sysfs: add check for netdevice being present to speed_show")

v2: Restrict patch to just required path and describe problem in more
    detail as suggested by Johannes Berg. Improve commit message format
    as suggested by Shigeru Yoshida.
v3: Use earlier Fixes commit as suggested by Paolo Abeni.
v4: Typo as suggested by Simon Horman.
v5: Move further up into ethtool as suggested by Jakub Kicinski.
