e1000e: disregard NVM checksum on tgp when valid checksum bit is not set
As described by Vitaly Lifshits: > Starting from Tiger Lake, LAN NVM is locked for writes by SW, so the > driver cannot perform checksum validation and correction. This means > that all NVM images must leave the factory with correct checksum and > checksum valid bit set. Since Tiger Lake devices were the first to have > this lock, some systems in the field did not meet this requirement. > Therefore, for these transitional devices we skip checksum update and > verification, if the valid bit is not set.
