[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v1 1/3] e1000: emulate auto-negotiation during external link status change

[Gabriel L. Somlo]

This patch emulates auto-negotiation when the network link status
is modified externally (i.e. via "set_link <id> off/on").

Also, a couple of cleanup items regarding the PHY status register:
  - unset AUTONEG_COMPLETE during link_down()
  - set AUTONEG_COMPLETE during autoneg_timer() only if we actually
    brought the link up.
