[PATCH net] net: bcmgenet: Poll internal PHY for GENETv5

From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com>
Date: 2018-10-11 22:06:43
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: broadcom genet ethernet driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Doug Berger, Florian Fainelli, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

On GENETv5, there is a hardware issue which prevents the GENET hardware
from generating a link UP interrupt when the link is operating at
10Mbits/sec. Since we do not have any way to configure the link
detection logic, fallback to polling in that case.

Fixes: 421380856d9c ("net: bcmgenet: add support for the GENETv5 hardware")
