This fixup removes the Lpi_en bit.
If this patch breaks functionality of your board, use following device
tree properties:
ethernet-phy@X {
reg = <0xX>;
eee-broken-1000t;
eee-broken-100tx;
....
};That is the historical fix for this problem, but there is a better solution now in net-next - configuring the Tw parameter for gigabit connections. That solves the random link drop issue when EEE is enabled. Support for this configuration has only recently been merged into net-next and other trees for this merge window, so I ask that you hold off at least this patch until the next cycle. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
