Since describing what I wanted you to test didn't work, here's a patch
instead, based upon the quirk that you provided (which is what I'd have
written anyway). Add a "#define DEBUG" to the top of
drivers/net/phy/phylink.c in addition to applying this patch, and please
test the resulting kernel, sending me the resulting kernel messages, and
also reporting whether this works or not.

Thanks.
