When dealing with a large number of ports, one of the performance
bottlenecks is that we loop through all netdevs in the main loop. Miimon
is a contributor to this, checking all devices even if it has never been
enabled.
This patch introduces a counter for the number of netdevs with miimon
configu

When dealing with a large number of ports, one of the performance
bottlenecks is that we loop through all netdevs in the main loop. Miimon
is a contributor to this, executing even if it is not enabled on any
devices.
This patch introduces a counter for the number of netdevs with miimon
configured.
