Hi all,

Changes in v5:

- removed an invalid use of the link_update callback in the SF2 driver
   was appeared after merging "net: phy: fixed_phy: handle link-down case"

Thanks for bringing this forward!
For the future, perhaps it will make sense to also
teach phylib to never read link status (including speed)
when link is down. Will help to narrow more of such problems.
