As discussed in the previous iteration of the series where I suggested to
add work-arounds disabling in-band AN for 1000Base-X and 2500Base-X having
those will also affect fiber transceivers which transparently pass-through
the electrical SerDes signal into light. Russell explained it very well
and I now agree that a good solution would be to add a new SFP quirk
indicating that a SFP module got a "hidden" PHY which doesn't like in-band
autonegotiation.

tl;dr What you are seeing is the expected behavior.
Try 'ethtool -s eth1 autoneg off', and the link should come up.
