Subject: PCH_GbE : Fixed the issue of collision detection
From: Toshiharu Okada <[email protected]>
commit ce3dad0f74e6b240f0b1dedbd8ea268a3f298d82 upstream.
The collision detection setting was invalid.
When collision occurred, because data was not resent,
there was an issue to which a transmitting throughput falls.
This patch enables the collision detection.
