[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH 5/5] apm821xx: net: emac: fix fixed-link setup for the RTL8363SB switch

On the Netgear WNDAP620, the emac ethernet isn't receiving nor
xmitting any frames from/to the RTL8363SB (identifies itself
as a RTL8367RB).

This is caused by hardware not knowing the right forced link
settings (speed, duplex, pause, etc.) settings.

+Subject: net: emac: fix fixed-link setup for the RTL8363SB switch
+
+On the Netgear WNDAP620, the emac ethernet isn't receiving nor
+xmitting any frames from/to the RTL8363SB (identifies itself
+as a RTL8367RB).
+
+This is caused by the emac hardware not knowing the forced link
+parameters for speed, duplex, pause, etc.
+
+This begs the question, how this was working on the original
+driver code, when it was necessary to set the phy_address and
+phy_map to 0xffffffff. But I guess without access to the old
+PPC405/440/460 hardware, it's not possible to know.
