DM9000: Restore MII physical polling timer.

In commit fcfa81aa3e8d885356139122fcb281487b983468 the timer for polling the
MII physical layer was removed because of conflicts with newly added mutexes.
Unfortunately a side effect of this change is that the corresponding ethernet
layer is permanently reported as down: there is no other way to read the link
status.

This commit restores the timer, but uses the default work queue for polling.
