sky2: only bring up watchdog if link is active
This fixes the extra timer overhead that people were whining about as a 2.6.23 regression. Running the watchdog timer all the time is unneeded. Change it to run only if link is up, and reduce frequency to save power. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
