Public bug reported:

[Impact]
Link establishment is delayed during initialization, possibly resulting in 
remote fault conditions that may cause the interface to fail to come up.

[Test Case]
Put the system in a reboot loop and watch for a remote fault condition, or a 
failure to bring up the link that can only be resolved by reloading the module.

[Regression Risk]
Patch is to a specific driver that is only used on Cavium ThunderX systems. The 
patch is upstream, so will have upstream support for regressions.

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Medium
