[PATCH] r8169: introduce polling method for link change

From: Koba Ko
Date: Wed Jun 02 2021 - 22:54:22 EST


For RTL8106E, it's a Fast-ethernet chip.
If ASPM is enabled, the link chang interrupt wouldn't be triggered
immediately and must wait a very long time to get link change interrupt.
Even the link change interrupt isn't triggered, the phy link is already
established.

Introduce a polling method to watch the status of phy link and disable
the link change interrupt.
Also add a quirk for those realtek devices have the same issue.
