Hello Russell,
I did the requested test

- host that supports 1000base-X and 2500base-X with your quirk (Banana PI R3)
- SFP inserted with LAN_SDS_MODE=1 (DFP-34X-2C2

and here below system messages concerning sfp:

sfp-1 is linked to eth1
eth1 is running at 2500base-x

Same result with ethtool:

Hi Sergio,

I did ask for the kernel messages from a specific scenario:

- host that supports 1000base-X and 2500base-X with your quirk
- SFP inserted with LAN_SDS_MODE=1

What I expet to see in the kernel messages is that the system will
use 2500base-X, and a failure.

You claim that the kernel will link at 1000base-X. There is no
mechanism in the kernel for this to happen, and I believe that
if you look at the kernel messages, this will prove my point.
