From: Russell King (Oracle) <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 04361b8bb81819efb68bf39c276025e2250ac537 upstream. Andrew reports that the SFF modules on one of the ZII platforms do not indicate link up due to the SFP code believing that LOS indicating that there is no signal being received from the remote end, but in fact the LOS signal is showing that there is signal. What makes SFF modules different from SFPs is they typically have an inverted LOS, which uncovered this issue. When we read the hardware state, we mask it with state_hw_mask so we ignore anything we're not interested in. However, we don't re-read when state_hw_mask changes, leading to sfp->state being stale. Arrange for a software poll of the module state after we have parsed the EEPROM in sfp_sm_mod_probe() and updated state_*_mask. This will generate any necessary events for signal changes for the state machine as well as updating sfp->state.
