Russell King 576cd32082 sfp: fix module initialisation with netdev already up
It was been observed that with a particular order of initialisation,
the netdev can be up, but the SFP module still has its TX_DISABLE
signal asserted.  This occurs when the network device brought up before
the SFP kernel module has been inserted by userspace.

This occurs because sfp-bus layer does not hear about the change in
network device state, and so assumes that it is still down.  Set
netdev->sfp when the upstream is registered to work around this problem.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
