kern/173516: [cxgbe] Doesn't detect link-up after driver is first loaded

[np at FreeBSD.org]

Synopsis: [cxgbe] Doesn't detect link-up after driver is first loaded

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: np
State-Changed-When: Tue Mar 18 18:39:37 UTC 2014
State-Changed-Why: 
This is as designed.  The driver powers up the PHY only when the link
is administratively up.  So you do need an ifconfig up in order for
link state to be reported accurately.
