Daniel Golle b4ce102b2c net: dsa: mt7530: check bus->read() errors in the MDIO regmap backend
bus->read() returns a negative errno on failure, but
mt7530_regmap_read() assigns it to a u16, truncating e.g. -ETIMEDOUT
into 0xff92, and returns success. The garbage word is then consumed as
register data, and read-modify-write cycles write it back to the
switch. Check both reads and propagate their errors.

The same defect existed in mt7530_mii_read() since the driver was
introduced and moved into the regmap backend unchanged.
