[ Upstream commit 193250ace270fecd586dd2d0dfbd9cbd2ade977f ]
Fix data corruption issue with SerDes connected PHYs operating at 1.25
Gbps speed where we could previously observe about 30% packet loss while
the bad packet counter was increasing.
As almost all boards with MediaTek MT7622 or MT7986 use either the MT7531
switch IC operating at 3.125Gbps SerDes rate or single-port PHYs using
rate-adaptation to 2500Base-X mode, this issue only got exposed now when
we started trying to use SFP modules operating with 1.25 Gbps with the
BananaPi R3 board.
The fix is to set bit 12 which disables the RX FIFO clear function when
setting up MAC MCR, MediaTek SDK did the same change stating:
"If without this patch, kernel might receive invalid packets that are
corrupted by GMAC."[1]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
