3c59x: shorten timer period for slave devices
Jean Delvare reported bonding on top of 3c59x adapters was not detecting network cable removal fast enough. 3c59x indeed uses a 60 seconds timer to check link status if carrier is on, and 5 seconds if carrier is off. This patch reduces timer period to 5 seconds if device is a bonding slave.
