[ Upstream commit a4db9055fdb9cf607775c66d39796caf6439ec92 ] As reported by Zhang there's a small issue if in forced mode the duplex mode changes with the link staying up [0]. In this case the MAC isn't notified about the change. The proposed patch relies on the phylib state machine and ignores the fact that there are drivers that uses phylib but not the phylib state machine. So let's don't change the behavior for such drivers and fix it w/o re-adding state PHY_FORCING for the case that phylib state machine is used.

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.
