PATCH 1/1 net: sfp: relax bitrate-derived mode check

From: Russell King <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 7a77233ec6d114322e2c4f71b4e26dbecd9ea8a7 ]

Do not check the encoding when deriving 1000BASE-X from the bitrate when no other modes are discovered. Some GPON modules (VSOL V2801F and CarlitoxxPro CPGOS03-0490 v2.0) indicate NRZ encoding with a 1200Mbaud bitrate, but should be driven with 1000BASE-X on the host side.

Please apply this commit to all stable releases where was already backported commit 0d035bed2a4a6c4878518749348be61bf082d12a ("net: sfp: VSOL V2801F / CarlitoxxPro CPGOS03-0490 v2.0 workaround") as it depends on this commit. If I checked it correctly patch should go into 5.10 release.
