When connected back to back sometime 82599 multispeed fiber modules would link at 1G speed instead of 10G highest speed, due to a race condition in autotry process involving Tx laser flapping. Move autotry autoneg-37 tx laser flapping process from multispeed module init setup to driver unload. This will alert the link partner to restart its autotry process when it tries to establish the link with the link partner Signed-off-by: Mallikarjuna R Chilakala Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher Signed-off-by: David S.
