Hi Heiner

What about the case of the PHY performing a downshift?

Could it be up, then finds a pair fails, so performs a downshift. Does
it always report link down and then up to the new speed? Or could it
just shift down? And so we want to read the new speed?

I suppose it could also perform an upshift? A broken pair comes back
to life, so it returns to the higher speed?
