!strncmp(buf, "force host", 9) is true if and only if buf starts with "force hos". This was obviously not what was intended. The same error exists for "force full-speed", "force high-speed" and "test packet". Using strstarts avoids the error-prone hardcoding of the prefix length.
Not sure this qualifies for -stable, but if some other "real" -stable patch depends textually on this, it should be ok/harmless. Just my 2c.
