After hot plugging an 1Gbps Ethernet cable with 1Gbps link partner, the MII_BMSR may report 10Mbps, renders the network rather slow. The issue has much lower fail rate after commit 59653e6497d1 ("e1000e: Make watchdog use delayed work"), which essentially introduces some delay before running the watchdog task. But there's still a chance that the hot plugging event and the queued watchdog task gets run at the same time, then the original issue can be observed once again. So let's use mod_delayed_work() to add a deterministic 1 second delay before running watchdog task, after an interrupt.

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.
