[PATCH 7/6] net/e1000: don't fail to bind on uninitialized flash

[Uwe Kleine-König]

When the flash doesn't hold a valid firmware image there are still
some things (like accessing the flash) possible. Don't return an error
code in this case but return 0 instead. This way the driver is
regularily bound and just doesn't provide a network interface.
