Since this is version 5 of your original patch, you should be putting
the change log of this patch here, so that we can follow how you got to
this point. ?This helpful for the reviewers (and me, the maintainer).
?For example:
v2: dropped the "else" case of "if" statement, based on feedback from
? ? Jeff Kirsher
v3: changed the if statement to simply return when the link speed is
? ? unknown on X540 parts based on feedback from Emil Tantilov
v4: updated code comment and if statement to test for IFF_SLAVE flag
V5: simplified code comment and if statement to only test for IFF_SLAVE
? ? flag and unknown link speed.

Of course, you can expand on what I have above, I just did a quick
summary of the changes as an example of a change log.?
