net: stmmac: Modify configuration method of EEE timers
Ethtool manual stated that the tx-timer is the "the amount of time the device should stay in idle mode prior to asserting its Tx LPI". The previous implementation for "ethtool --set-eee tx-timer" sets the LPI TW timer duration which is not correct. Hence, this patch fixes the "ethtool --set-eee tx-timer" to configure the EEE LPI timer. The LPI TW Timer will be using the defined default value instead of "ethtool --set-eee tx-timer" which follows the EEE LS timer implementation. Changelog V2 *Not removing/modifying the eee_timer. *EEE LPI timer can be configured through ethtool and also the eee_timer module param. *EEE TW Timer will be configured with default value only, not able to be configured through ethtool or module param. This follows the implementation of the EEE LS Timer. Fixes: d765955d ("stmmac: add the Energy Efficient Ethernet support") Signed-off-by:Vineetha G.
