Hi reviewers,

I suggest to backport commit "e96bd2d3b1f8 phy: avoid unnecessary link-up delay in polling mode" to linux-5.4 stable tree.

This patch reports a solution to an incorrect phy link detection issue. "With this solution we don't miss a link-down event in polling mode and link-up is faster."

commit: e96bd2d3b1f83170d1d5c1a99e439b39a22a5b58 subject: phy: avoid unnecessary link-up delay in polling mode kernel version to apply to: Linux-5.4

Now queued up, thanks.
