those registers have the same value on an original image from
hardkernel: 

Linux odroid64 3.14.65-65 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat May 28
02:50:51 BRT 2016 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

yes, the ethernet works flawless in 100 and 1000 Mbit/s on the 3.14
kernel.

I can now confirm that both 100 and 1000 Mbit/s do not work properly
on the 4.8/integ branch. the network connection is interrupted after
some outbound traffic. it can be recovered by running a ifdown/ifup
which restarts dhclient, which I think is able to somehow reset the
interface. 

Anything I can help to debug the issue further ?

Regards,

 Andr?
