+         Force master mode for 1000BASE-T on RTl8211x PHYs.
+         This is helpful for unstable gigabit links, e.g. on the
+         RTL8211C(L).

+         If two devices force master mode, they will not be able to establish
+         a direct link between themselves. In this case, either:
+          - live with an unstable link and disable this option
+          - reduce link speed to 100MBit/s
+          - use a switch
