What PHY are you using? I think every one i've looked at are level
triggered, not edge. Using an edge interrupt might work 99% of the
time, but when the timing is just wrong, you can loose an interrupt.
Which might mean phylib thinks the link is down, when it fact it is
up. You will need to unplug and replug to recover from that.
