We won't be accepting this patch for the following reasons:
The default has been changed but you will be able to enable those speeds using
ethtool now.
The default of 2.5G and 5G are OFF because of interoperability issues with
certain 10G switches that are confused by 2.5G and 5G and negotiate
this version added support for 2.5 Gbps and 5 Gbps auto-negotiation
for adapters X550 and later. however, for switches that support
these speeds (and so advertise) but /do not/ advertise those modes
(e.g. Netgear MS-510TX), the changes don't' suffice, and the
adapter reverts to 1 Gb/s speed.
