Set the speed optimization bit on the DP83869 PHY. Speed optimization, also known as link downshift, enables fallback to 100M operation after multiple consecutive failed attempts at Gigabit link establishment. Such a case could occur if cabling with only four wires (two twisted pairs) were connected instead of the standard cabling with eight wires (four twisted pairs). The number of failed link attempts before falling back to 100M operation is configurable. By default, four failed link attempts are required before falling back to 100M.

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.
