Call netif_carrier_on() only if interface's link is up. Switching this on
upon IFF_UP by default, is causing issues with ethernet channel bonding
in LACP mode. Initial NETDEV_CHANGE notification was being skipped.

Also fixed some issues with link/speed/duplex reporting via ethtool.

Just a reminder, we have issue with this one too, which is not addressed yet.

Hello again!

 I have examined the problem thoroughly and discovered that it is a problem with experimental BGX driver patches on my 4.2 host
kernel build. It fails to send NIC_MBOX_MSG_BGX_LINK_CHANGE, so nothing works.
 I have retested this series on top of 4.3 running on ThunderX. It has good BGX driver and everything works fine. Therefore, the
whole series can be safely applied and...

Ok, thanks for confirming things are fine now.

I'll apply this series.
