Hi,

> The transmit and receive controller state machines are only enabled after
> receiving an interrupt and the link status is now valid.  If an adapter
> is being used in conjunction with NC-SI, network controller sideband
> interface, the adapter may never get a link state change interrupt since
> the adapter's PHY is always link up and never changes state.
>
> To fix this, always enable and disable the transmit and receive with
> .dev_start and .dev_stop.  This is a better match for what is typically
> done with the other PMD's.  Since we may never get an interrupt to check
> the link state, we also poll once at the end of .dev_start to get the
> current link status.
