e1000e: disregard NVM checksum on tgp when valid checksum bit is not set

Browse Source 
commit 536fd741c7ac907d63166cdae1081b1febfab613 upstream.

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.
