Thanks for your feedback.
I am reevaluating the need for this patch based on your recommendation.
I am currently testing it with keeping the optimal values of the link rate
here and only train at the max link rate when we recieve the test request
from DPR 120. 
In this case we would need to configure the PLLs base don the requested target
link rate and train the link at that rate and after the test is done restore
the original state of the PLLs. Does that sound like a good approach, is this
what you were suggesting?
