Interface fails to obtain link on 82599 SFP in the following scenario:
1. Set advertised speed to GB:
ethtool -s eth0 advertise 0x20
2. Bring interface down
ip link set eth0 down
3. Issue any command that leads to a reset:
ethtool -t eth0
4. Bring link back up:
ip link set eth0 up
Following patch makes sure that the driver flaps the Tx laser every time
ixgbe_start_hw() is called, and not only when the speed is set.
