copper NICs, a link change event is posted whenever MII autopolling is
toggled off and on, which happens whenever someone calls
bge_miibus_readreg() or bge_miibus_writereg() to access the PHY
registers. This means anytime someone called the SIOCGIFMEDIA ioctl
on a bge interface, the link would reset. Even a simple "ifconfig bge0"
would do it, though other apps like dhclient or the PPPoE daemon could
trigger it as well. An obvious symptom of this problem is lots of
"bgeX: gigabit link up" messages appearing on the console for no
apparent reason.
Through experimentation, I determined that when a real link change
event occurs, the BGE_MIMODE_AUTOPOLL in the BGE_MI_MODE register
is always set, so now if we have a copper NIC and an link change
event occurs and the BGE_MIMODE_AUTOPOLL bit is clear, we ignore
the event.
Note that this does not apply to the original BCM5700 chip since we
use a different method for sensing link changes with that chip (the
status block method was broken), nor to fiber optic NICs since they
don't use the GMII PHY access registers.

(mainly the 3Com 3c996B/BCM5701).
For some reason that I don't fully understand, the 5701 signals PCS
encoding errors as though they were link change events, i.e. the 'link
state changed' bit in the status word of the status block is updated
and an interrupt is generated. This would cause the bge_tick() function
to be invoked and a "gigabit link up" message to be printed on the console.
To avoid this, the interrupt handler now checks the MAC status register
when a link change interrupt is triggered, and it will only call the
bge_tick() function if the 'PCS encoding error detected' bit is clear.
(This change should have no effect on copper NICs since this bit can
only ever be set in TBI mode. I do not know how it affects 5704 NICs
with a BCM8002 SERDES PHY.)

interrupts. This is a bit harder than it needs to be because there's
more than one way to generate link attentions, at least one of which
does not work on the BCM5700, but does on the 5701.
For the 5701, we can safely use the 'link changed' bit in the status
block, and we enable link change attentions in the mac event register.
For the 5700, we have to use MII interrupts, which require checking
the MAC status register rather than the status block. This requires
doing an extra register access on each interrupt which I'd prefer to
avoid, but them's the breaks. Testing with both a 3c996-T and 3c996B-T
shows that we do in fact detect the link going up and down properly
on cable insertions/disconnections.
Also, avoid twiddling the autopoll enable bit in the MI mode register

will stop the interrupt storms Paul Saab has been harassing me about.
Manually setting the link to 100baseTX full duplex seems to work ok
