+Subject: [PATCH] net: phy: lan87xx: Decrease phy polling rate
+
+Polling at 100Hz for 1.5s consumes quite a bit of kworker time with no
+obvious benefit. Reduce that polling rate to ~6Hz.
+
+To further save CPU and power, defer the next poll if no energy is
+detected.
+
+See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/4780
