The PHY driver > notices that SUPPORTED_FIBRE is set, so it tries reading the fiber page > for the link status, and ends up reading the MAC-side status instead of > the outgoing (copper) link. This leads to incorrect results reported > via ethtool. > > If the PHY is connected via SGMII to the host, ignore the fiber page. > However, continue to allow the existing power management code to > suspend and resume the fiber page. > > Signed-off-by: Russell King Applied, thanks Russell.
