Makes sense, this is also done as part of the C45 config_aneg sequence.

You're missing a few things process-wise :

- a Fixes tag to indicate the commit that introduced the bug

- You must CC all the relevant maintainers, including the top-level networking
maintainers, use ./scripts/get_maintainers.pl to get the list

- The patch must have in the subject an indication that this targets the
'net' tree, for bugfixes, see :

https://docs.kernel.org/process/maintainer-netdev.html

Feel free to re-send a V2 (after waiting 24h), and add my review tag :
