Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.18 16/33] net: bcmgenet: Poll internal PHY for GENETv5

From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 64bd9c8135751b561f27edaaffe93d07093f81af ]

On GENETv5, there is a hardware issue which prevents the GENET hardware
from generating a link UP interrupt when the link is operating at
10Mbits/sec. Since we do not have any way to configure the link
detection logic, fallback to polling in that case.

Fixes: 421380856d9c ("net: bcmgenet: add support for the GENETv5 hardware")
