phylink_mac_change() is supposed to be called with a 'false' argument if the link has gone down since it was last reported up; this is to ensure that link events along with renegotiation events are always correctly reported to userspace. Read the BMSR once when we have an interrupt, and report the link latched status to phylink via phylink_mac_change(). phylink will deal automatically with re-reading the link state once it has processed the link-down event.

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.
