[question] net: phy: rtl8211f: link speed shows 1000Mb/s but actual link speed in phy is 100Mb/s

[Yonglong Liu <liuyonglong@huawei.com>]

I use two devices, both support 1000M speed, they are directly connected
with a network cable. Two devices enable autoneg, and then do the following
test repeatedly:
	ifconfig eth5 down
	ifconfig eth5 up
	sleep $((RANDOM%6))
	ifconfig eth5 down
	ifconfig eth5 up
	sleep 10

With low probability, one device A link up with 100Mb/s, the other B link up with
1000Mb/s(the actual link speed read from phy is 100Mb/s), and the network can
not work.

device A:

The regs value read from mdio are:
reg 9 = 0
reg a = 0x800

I had talk to the FAE of rtl8211f, they said if negotiation failed with 1000Mb/s,
rtl8211f will change reg 9 to 0, than try to negotiation with 100Mb/s.

The problem happened as:
ifconfig eth5 up -> phy_start -> phy_start_aneg -> phy_modify_changed(MII_CTRL1000)
(this time both A and B, reg 9 = 0x200) -> wait for link up -> (B: reg 9 changed to 0)
-> link up.

I think this is the bug of the rtl8211f itself, any one have an idea to avoid this bug?

When link up, update phydev->advertising before notify the eth driver, is this method
suitable? (phydev->advertising is config from user, if user just set one speed 1000M,
it's hard to )
