Hello,
I recently figured out that neither the previous patch nor commit
0b76aae741abb9d16d2c0e67f8b1e766576f897d fix this issue.
In these cases, after reproducing the issue, when ethernet wire is connected
kernel logs mention full speed (1000 Mbps) but actually it seems it is not.
The problem persists.
I made some simple tests with a web browser and a dowload speed test
site (fast.com). As a result speed was always around 8 Mbps.
And again after a quick ethernet wire disconnection / reconnection, same
test is around 500 Mbps.
I feel very confused.
