What should really happen is something like:

                common_adv = lpa & adv;

                lp->active_speed = SPEED_10;
                lp->active_duplex = DUPLEX_HALF;

                if (common_adv_gb & (LPA_1000FULL | LPA_1000HALF)) {
                        lp->active_speed = SPEED_1000;

                        if (common_adv_gb & LPA_1000FULL)
                                lp->active_duplex = DUPLEX_FULL;
                } else if (common_adv & (LPA_100FULL | LPA_100HALF)) {
                        lp->active_speed = SPEED_100;

                        if (common_adv & LPA_100FULL)
                                lp->active_duplex = DUPLEX_FULL;
                } else
                        if (common_adv & LPA_10FULL)
                                lp->active_duplex = DUPLEX_FULL;

i.e. making use of the results of the autoneg to determine the link
speed and duplex, rather than just assuming it is 1G.

If i turn this into a real patch, does anybody have the hardware to
test it?
