[PATCH] net: sfp: Add tx-fault quirk for Huawei MA5671A SFP ONT

From: Matthew Hagan
Date: Sat Apr 30 2022 - 08:53:48 EST


As noted elsewhere [1], various GPON SFP modules exhibit non-standard
TX-fault behaviour. In the tested case, the Huawei MA5671A, when used in
combination with a Marvell 88E6393X switch, was found to persistently
assert TX-fault, resulting in the module being disabled.

This patch adds a quirk to ignore changes to the the SFP_F_TX_FAULT
state, thus allowing the module to function.
