FYI

I changed 4.12.0 drivers/net/phy/realtek.c RTL8211F code to equal the
3.14.29 amlogic/ethernet/phy/am_realtek.c code and now the networking
works without TCP stalls.

I don't say below patch should be considered mainstream (as maybe some
4.12.0 rtl8211f_config_init code should not be removed) but sure
someone could figure out what best patch is...
