 ONU SFP

Hi Sergio,

I did ask for the kernel messages from a specific scenario:

- host that supports 1000base-X and 2500base-X with your quirk
- SFP inserted with LAN_SDS_MODE=1

What I expet to see in the kernel messages is that the system will
use 2500base-X, and a failure.

You claim that the kernel will link at 1000base-X. There is no
mechanism in the kernel for this to happen, and I believe that
if you look at the kernel messages, this will prove my point.
