ixgbevf: Use cached link state instead of re-reading the value for ethtool

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1836760

Change the ethtool link settings call to just read the cached state out of
the adapter structure instead of trying to recheck the value from the PF.
Doing this should prevent excessive reading of the mailbox.

[gpiccoli:
* Context adjustment for v4.4.
* Changed the patch to use the old ethtool API for get link settings
(get_link_ksettings -> get_settings); the new API was introduced in
v4.6 by commit 3f1ac7a7.]
