Summary0000145: Frequent WAN disconnects on ath79 platform
DescriptionThe ar8216 switch driver has a problem that leads to occational (and sometimes frequent) WAN dis- and reconnects as well as link speed drops.
This only occurs with a subset of devices from ath79 target, ar71xx (i.e. last released stable firmware) is fine:

[18580.106696] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
[19014.825937] eth0: link up (10Mbps/Half duplex)
[19055.384105] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
[21927.853366] eth0: link up (10Mbps/Half duplex)
[22003.771999] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
[23743.685216] eth0: link down
[23744.723679] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
[23756.242265] eth0: link down
[23757.283590] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
[24075.522397] eth0: link up (10Mbps/Half duplex)
[24090.081802] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
[24100.481809] eth0: link up (10Mbps/Half duplex)
[24166.001178] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
[24500.880989] eth0: link up (10Mbps/Half duplex)

In production, this may lead to an installation becoming inaccessible for days.

The problem has recently been "fixed" in OpenWrt master: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/86fdc8abed5992a74078b000b5ff9da723b6f46b

I have cherry-picked this into 19.07 and just sent a patch to the franken-dev list.
