From ca6efb7d6c9336acda2e7b76a39b59bbfe77ec13 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Kok, Auke" Date: Fri, 16 Feb 2007 14:39:30 -0800 Subject: e1000: allow ethtool to see link status when down By reading the MAC status register we can detect whether the MAC has seen the PHY see link. This allows us to show the link properties before the device is up in ethtool.
