DM9000: Allow the use of the NSR register to get link status.

Browse source 
The DM9000's internal PHY reports a copy of the link status
in the NSR register of the chip. Reading the status when
polling for link status is faster as it eliminates the need
to sleep, but does not print as much information.

Add an platform flag to force this behaviour, and a Kconfig
option to allow it to be forced to the faster method always.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
will be called dm9000.
config DM9000_FORCE_SIMPLE_PHY_POLL

depends on DM9000
---help---
This configuration forces the DM9000 to use the NSR's LinkStatus
bit to determine if the link is up or down instead of the more
costly MII PHY reads. Note, this will not work if the chip is
operating with an external PHY.
