net: ks8851: Set initial carrier state to down The ks8851 chip's initial carrier state is down. A Link Change Interrupt is signaled once interrupts are enabled if the carrier is up. The ks8851 driver has it backwards by assuming that the initial carrier state is up. The state is therefore misrepresented if the interface is opened with no cable attached. Fix it. The Link Change interrupt is sometimes not signaled unless the P1MBSR register (which contains the Link Status bit) is read on ->ndo_open(). This might be a hardware erratum. Read the register by calling mii_check_link(), which has the desirable side effect of setting the carrier state to down if the cable was detached while the interface was closed.
