forcedeth and kernel 2.6.5 has "no link"

[John Wong <kernel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Under kernel 2.6.4, ethtool reports:

Settings for eth0:
        Link detected: yes

This is with forcedeth 0.23

Under kernel 2.6.5, ethtool reports:

Settings for eth0:
        Supports Wake-on: g
        Wake-on: d
        Link detected: no

This is with forcedeth 0.25

With 2.6.5, it doesn't see an link but there is one.  The connection is
quite slow, so I'm thinking it may be using 10baseT-HD instead of
100baseTx-FD.  The forcedeth driver does not appear to support
autonegotiation.

I had submitted the bugzilla id 2283.  2496 is something that I am
experiencing too.
