Hi Rene,

Within 12 hours, I got some spontaneous link down/ups when EEE is enabled:

[16334.236233] mt7530 mdio-bus:1f wan: Link is Down
[16334.241340] br-lan: port 3(wan) entered disabled state
[16337.355988] mt7530 mdio-bus:1f wan: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control rx/tx
[16337.363468] br-lan: port 3(wan) entered blocking state
[16337.368638] br-lan: port 3(wan) entered forwarding state

The cable is a 30m Cat.6 and never has such issue when EEE is disabled.
Perhaps WAKEUP_TIME_1000/100 or some PHY registers need to be fine-tuned,
but for now I think it should be disabled by default.
