Hi Igor
Please could you also export the temperature using HWMON. The Marvell
PHY drivers are good examples.
I also have a patch for driver/net/phy/aquantia.c which adds HWMON
support to that PHY.

That is a big jump. Do you need to cool is down quickly, or would
1Gbps be sufficient? I think as a user, i would prefer it ping-pongs
between 5G and 1G, not 5G and 100M.

It looks like this only works when auto-neg is enabled. If i've fixed
configured it i don't think this works?

How often do you see these messages? I'm wondering if they need to be
rate limited?

Should there be some hysteresis in here? In fact, if temperature is
AQ_CRITICAL_TEMP_THRESHOLD it is both back to normal, and throttled at
the same time!

update_speed might be a better name, since you are not always
resetting it.
