    e1000: Recover from the 82574 PHY hang
    
    The shared code provides e1000_check_phy_82574() to recognize a PHY
    hang from saturated receive error and idle error counters, but em(4)
    never calls it.
    
    Run the check from timer driven admin work.  Match Intel e1000e by
    requiring two consecutive positive samples before requesting a full
    iflib reset.
