[net,v2] net: stmmac: Set MAC's flow control register to reflect current settings
Commit Message
Currently, pause frame register GMAC_RX_FLOW_CTRL_RFE is not updated
correctly when 'ethtool -A <IFACE> autoneg off rx off tx off' command
is issued. This fix ensures the flow control change is reflected directly
in the GMAC_RX_FLOW_CTRL_RFE register.
Fixes: 46f69ded988d ("net: stmmac: Use resolved link config in mac_link_up()")

In future, please include a summary of what changed from version 1 of
the patch. This is generally placed under the --- marker.

This doesn't look correct to me. The function starts off:
unsigned int flow = 0;
flow is not written to before the context above. So, the code you've
added effectively does:
flow = 0 & ~GMAC_RX_FLOW_CTRL_RFE;
which is still zero. So, I don't think this hunk is meaningful apart
from adding the pr_debug().

This looks like the true fix for correctly setting the flow control
depending on the phylink link_up() (which will contain the resuts of
pause negotiation, rate adaption or overriden by ethtool - but only
when operating in full duplex mode.)

It also should be noted that it looks like:
dwxgmac2_core.c::dwxgmac2_flow_ctrl() is definitely buggy - it will
only set flow control, never clearing it.
dwmac100_core.c::dwmac100_flow_ctrl() looks potentially buggy - always
enabling flow control irrespective of anything.
The other two implmentations look sane to me.
