I can confirm that without this patch traffic doesn't seem to work when
I force things in to SPEED_10 with ethtool (which required another
change to this driver in stmmac_ethtool.c to do so, which as far as I
understand Sarosh from your group will be upstreaming soon and is an
independent issue).

I am curious, I expected to see some dropped/errors output in ip link
when things weren't working. I guess the sgmii phy in the soc is
rejecting these prior to handing them to the mac? Or am I
misunderstanding how that works?

Russell requested a comment about why you must program this every time,
I think it's a good idea too: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/ZWch7LIqbMEaLRLW@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Also on my wishlist is making 0x31 less magic, but Santa might not bring
that for me :)
