I downloaded the prebuilt image from hardkernel, I did not build the
kernel myself. but hardkernel has an earlier release of the same kernel
version, which works fine too. I assume they would have committed the
change in the newer version..

that's what I don't understand as well...
the patched kernel shows the following:
$ uname -a
Linux T-06 4.9.0-rc4+ #21 SMP PREEMPT Sun Nov 13 12:07:19 UTC 2016
$ sudo ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
Supported ports: [ TP MII ]
Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
1000baseT/Full

Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full

1000baseT/Full
Advertised pause frame use: No
Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
Link partner advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full

$ sudo ethtool --show-eee eth0
EEE Settings for eth0:
EEE status: disabled

Supported EEE link modes: 100baseT/Full
1000baseT/Full
Advertised EEE link modes: 100baseT/Full
Link partner advertised EEE link modes: 100baseT/Full
1000baseT/Full
can it be that "EEE link modes" and the "normal" link modes are two
different things ?

I cannot check this easily at the moment..
