When compiled into the kernel or used as a module, the driver can't
auto-negotiate or be forced into full duplex.
Environment is D-Link DES-1005D "mini-switch" 100baseTX.
If i boot into windows (which detects full duplex) and then back into
linux it will use full duplex.
The eeprom is programmed to use 100baseTX-FD with the help of 3Com's
setup utility.
mii-diag output does not look as it should.
