Prior to this patch, the driver would do this for each port: read 8-bit PCS write 8-bit PCS read 8-bit PCS write 8-bit PCS In the field, flaky behavior has been observed related to this register. In particular, these overzealous register writes can cause misdetection problems. Update to do the following once (not once per port) at boot: read 16-bit PCS if needs changing, write 16-bit PCS And thereafter, we only perform a 'read 16-bit PCS' per port. This should eliminate all PCS writes in many cases, and be more friendly in the cases where we do need to enable ports. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
