Due to this commit, I see the folllowing change on Renesas development
boards using either the sh_eth or ravb Ethernet driver:

    -sh-eth ee700000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 100Mbps/Full - flow
control rx/tx
    +sh-eth ee700000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 100Mbps/Full - flow control off

and

    -ravb e6800000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control rx/tx
    +ravb e6800000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control off

Adding debug prints reveals that:

    phydev->autoneg = 1
    phydev->pause = 1
    phydev->asym_pause = 0 or 1 (depending on the board)
    local_pause = 0
    local_asym_pause = 0

Is this expected behavior?

Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
