When booting with a dock connected, the igc driver may get stuck for ~40
seconds if PCIe link is lost during initialization.
This happens because the driver access device after EECD register reads
return all F's, indicating failed reads. Consequently, hw->hw_addr is set
to NULL, which impacts subsequent rd32() reads. This leads to the driver
hanging in igc_get_hw_semaphore_i225(), as the invalid hw->hw_addr
prevents retrieving the expected value.
To address this, a validation check and a corresponding return value
catch is added for the EECD register read result. If all F's are
returned, indicating PCIe link loss, the driver will return -ENXIO
immediately. This avoids the 40-second hang and significantly improves
boot time when using a dock with an igc NIC.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
