+Subject: e1000e: Fix e1000_check_for_copper_link_ich8lan return value.
+Origin: https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=151297726823919&w=2
+Bug: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198047
+Bug-Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/885348
+
+e1000e_check_for_copper_link() and e1000_check_for_copper_link_ich8lan()
+are the two functions that may be assigned to mac.ops.check_for_link when
+phy.media_type == e1000_media_type_copper. Commit 19110cfbb34d ("e1000e:
+Separate signaling for link check/link up") changed the meaning of the
+return value of check_for_link for copper media but only adjusted the first
+function. This patch adjusts the second function likewise.
