Subject: RE: [EXT] Re: [PATCH net] net: phylink: fix link state on phy-connect

The phylink_stop is called before phylink_disconnect_phy
You could see in mvpp2.c:

mvpp2_stop_dev() {
	phylink_stop(port->phylink); 
}

mvpp2_stop()       { 
	mvpp2_stop_dev(port);
	phylink_disconnect_phy(port->phylink);
}

.ndo_stop = mvpp2_stop,

Are you calling phylink_stop() or are you just calling phylink_disconnect() ?

You must call phylink_stop() prior to phylink_disconnect().  This probably explains why the p21 patch did nothing.
