Hence we are programming it always when SGMII link comes up in 10M mode. init driver data for ethqos is common for sgmii and rgmii. As this fix is specific to SGMII we can't add this to init driver data.

What reason (in terms of the hardware) requires you to do this every
time you select 10M speed? Does the hardware change the value in the
register?
