ugeth_quiesce/activate are used to halt the controller when there is a link change that requires to reconfigure the mac. The previous implementation called netif_device_detach(). This however causes the initial activation of the netdevice to fail precisely because it's detached. For details, see [1]. A possible workaround was the revert of commit net: linkwatch: add check for netdevice being present to linkwatch_do_dev However, the check introduced in the above commit is correct and shall be kept. The netif_device_detach() is thus replaced with netif_tx_stop_all_queues() that prevents any tranmission. This allows to perform mac config change required by the link change, without detaching the corresponding netdevice and thus not preventing its initial activation.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
