commit bfd823bd74333615783d8108889814c6d82f2ab0 upstream.

o Enable setting speed and auto negotiation parameters for GbE ports.
o Hardware do not support half duplex setting currently.

David Miller:
        Amit please update your patch to silently reject link setting
        attempts that are unsupported by the device.

Therefore I would like to see this patch in a future 2.6.32.y kernel,
so everyone using that as a baseline can benefit from the fix.  The
patch hit mainline in the 2.6.39 merge window.

What is the right way to submit networking patches for the 2.6.32.y
tree?  Should I send them to you or directly to Willy, are your
requirements for them the same as the usual stable_kernel_rules.txt or
other ones, and is [2] the right place to find a preview of patches
destined for longterm trees or do they go somewhere else?

Looking forward to your thoughts,
Jonathan
