From 31f6f291b618b56ebac441279e4f90292fd6b191 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Balakumaran Kannan Date: Tue, 3 Jun 2014 22:13:48 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] net: driver: smsc: set NOCARRIER flag in dev at driver initialization As smsc driver supports carrier detection, it should unset NOCARRIER flag only after carrier state determination. By default that flag is off so driver should set it before starting auto-negotiation Signed-off-by: Balakumaran Signed-off-by: David S.
