MPC8360 QE UCC ethernet controllers hang when changing link duplex
under a load (a bit of NFS activity is enough).

  PHY: mdio@e0102120:00 - Link is Up - 1000/Full
  sh-3.00# ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex half autoneg off
  PHY: mdio@e0102120:00 - Link is Down
  PHY: mdio@e0102120:00 - Link is Up - 100/Half
  NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (ucc_geth): transmit queue 0 timed out
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  Badness at c01fcbd0 [verbose debug info unavailable]
  NIP: c01fcbd0 LR: c01fcbd0 CTR: c0194e44
  ...

The cure is to disable the controller before changing speed/duplex
and enable it afterwards.

Since ugeth_graceful_stop_{tx,rx} now may be called from an atomic
context, switch the two functions from msleep() to mdelay().

v2: Switch ugeth_graceful_stop_{tx,rx} to mdelay. Noticed with
    CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP.

Ouch.  Can we put this in a workqueue or something?

Yeah, right... delaying for 10ms with irqs off isn't good.

adjust_link() itself isn't called from an atomic context.

It's we are grabbing ugeth->lock, i.e. a spinlock. I don't see
why the lock is needed in adjust_link() in its current form,
but if we're going to disable the controller for some time,
we'll have to make sure that no start_xmit() or NAPI is running,
scheduled or will be scheduled until we say so.

I think that lock-less, and thus completely sleep-able variant
of adjust_link is doable.

Thanks,

Oops. I though that phylib calls us from a workqueue, not a timer. Hm...

Will be a little bit more work..
