From 745b5c653913829ede6d4466f36b35426d6e1823 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Edwin Peer Date: Sun, 27 Sep 2020 13:42:16 -0400 Subject: bnxt_en: avoid link reset if speed is not changed PORT_PHY_CONFIG is always sent with REQ_FLAGS_RESET_PHY set. This flag must be set in order for the firmware to institute the requested PHY change immediately, but it results in a link flap. This is unnecessary and results in an improved user experience if the PHY reconfiguration is avoided when the user requested speed does not constitute a change.
