Ex: if auto-neg timeout is 5 seconds and if we have 10 network interfaces (all are legal candidate for booting), and cable is connected to 3rd interface only then 45 seconds will be wasted (5 seconds each for 9 interfaces) in auto-neg of interfaces which are not connected via cable.
There is no need for drivers to block in the Start() method waiting for link-up detection. Link detection can happen entirely asynchronously, thereby reducing your wasted time from 45 seconds to zero.
