Turn flow control off for sky2. When flow control is on, the transmitter
may get randomly stuck. Perhaps there is hardware problem, but until
Marvell provides errata information for workaround, it should default to off.

Hi Stephen,
First, thanks for this detailed explanation.

Here is what I saw.
The transmitter on the Marvell Yukon II (88e8053) hangs when doing transmit flow
control under load. There appears to be a bug or race condition that
causes the MAC to stop transmitting data.
There are two drivers for the Yukon II device on Linux. SysKonnect/Marvell
has one

Turn flow control off for sky2. When flow control is on, the transmitter
may get randomly stuck. Perhaps there is hardware problem, but until
Marvell provides errata information for workaround, it should default to off.
