Subject: [PATCH] e1000e: Make speed detection on hotplugging cable more reliable
Date:   Mon, 15 Jul 2019 16:43:55 +0800
Message-Id: <20190715084355.9962-1-kai.heng.feng@canonical.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

After hotplugging an 1Gbps ethernet cable with 1Gbps link partner, the
MII_BMSR may reports 10Mbps, renders the network rather slow.

The issue has much lower fail rate after commit 59653e6497d1 ("e1000e:
Make watchdog use delayed work"), which esssentially introduces some
delay before running the watchdog task.

But there's still a chance that the hotplugging 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.
