Sorry for the delay, I only got back to it today.
I've tried your patch and do not see any additional output on the
kernel log, just like it is the case for Frank's 2.5G SFP module as
well. I conclude that the PHY is inaccessible.
I've tried with and without the sfp_quirk_oem_2_5g.
With the quirk:
[ 55.111856] mt7530 mdio-bus:1f sfp2: Link is Up - Unknown/Unknown - flow control off
Without the quirk:
[ 44.603495] mt7530 mdio-bus:1f sfp2: unsupported SFP module: no common interface modes
Note that as there are probably also other similar 2500Base-T SFP modules around
I suspect that the introduction of the quirk might have broken them, in
the sense that previously they were working if one manually disabled AN
using ethtool, now they won't work at all :(
