PATCH 1/1 lan78xx: Avoid spurious kevent 4 "error"

lan78xx_defer_event generates an error message whenever the work item is already scheduled. lan78xx_open defers three events - EVENT_STAT_UPDATE, EVENT_DEV_OPEN and EVENT_LINK_RESET. Being aware of the likelihood (or certainty) of an error message, the DEV_OPEN event is added to the set of pending events directly, relying on the subsequent deferral of the EVENT_LINK_RESET call to schedule the work. Take the same precaution with EVENT_STAT_UPDATE to avoid a totally unnecessary error message.

Applied, thank you.
