If link auto-negotiation is disabled the exported link speed can not be relied on.
Why is a manual set speed less worth than a auto-configured one?

For example, some people in the freifunk community have tested this patch because they wanted to see how the tp_meter would perform on VPN links. Unfortunately the tun.ko module sets 10Mbps/AUTONEG_DISABLE as default settings.
From there we thought that, after all, if the autonegotiation is disabled, we should just assume that the speed is likely to be bogus and it's better to measure it.

I saw the discussion with Matthias. But nothing about that wasn't mentioned in the commit message. Looks like Marek already addresses these things and just has to submit the patch again.
And he should not forget your Acked-by (in case it still stands).
Kind regards, Sven
