3.16.75-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Petr Oros <poros@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 2e5db6eb3c23e5dc8171eb8f6af7a97ef9fcf3a9 upstream.
Certain cards in conjunction with certain switches need a little more
time for link setup that results in ethtool link test failure after
offline test. Patch adds a loop that waits for a link setup finish.
Changes in v2:
- added fixes header
Fixes: 4276e47e2d1c ("be2net: Add link test to list of ethtool self tests.")
