Ok.
So far I was not able to see obvious differences between:
probe -> ip link set dev eth1 up

and

probe -> ip link set dev eth1 up;
	 ip link set dev eth1 down;
	 ip link set dev eth1 up


Except of PHY sate. By default the PHY is in resumed state after probe
and is able to negotiate the link even if the MAC is down.
After ip link set dev eth1 down, the PHY is in suspend state, as
expected.

Can you please test this change?
