You need to prove this, that the link is not up. Any by link, we mean
both the copper and the SGMII link.

Well, the driver has told the core that the link is not up. So the
kernel is waiting for another interrupt indicating the link has gone
up. And probably, this second interrupt never happens.

And it is not disabling the interface. Since the PHY is still down,
the core has not called netif_carrier_on().
