Sorry to hear that, but if it's any consolation, you're not alone. On
new year's eve, I had three teeth extracted, including one that was
laying horizontally in the palate of the mouth buried in bone, and
needed in bone graft (modern bone grafts are quite different from what
you'd expect btw.) It's been quite sore/painful as it heals.

That sounds like a nightmare. I hope you get better soon.

Given the results you've given, my suggestion would be that the
following patches are probably the most risky:

Patch 2 "net: stmmac: qcom-ethqos: convert to set_clk_tx_rate() method"

This changes the way the clock is configured. It would be worth
testing that and giving a tested-by for the first two patches if
that's successful.

Right, this new sequence would move the clock rate setting to after the
custom core is configured. Unfortunately, I don't have a device with an
RGMII interface. I am checking if I can get my hands on one.

I have given a t-b for the first patch.
