Merge branch 'phy_ksettings'
Philippe Reynes says:
====================
net: phy: add phy_ethtool_{get|set}_link_ksettings
Ethtool callbacks {get|set}_link_ksettings may be the
same for many drivers. So we add two generics callbacks
phy_ethtool_{get|set}_link_ksettings.
To use those generics callbacks, the ethernet driver must
use the pointer phydev contained in struct net_device, and
not use a private structure to store this pointer.
Changelog:
v3:
- rename function to phy_ethtool_{get|set}_link_ksettings
- move code to net/phy/phy.c
This feedback were provided by David Decotigny
v2:
- use generic function instead of macro
- ethernet driver use the pointer phydev provided by struct net_device
Those idea were provided by Ben Hutchings,
and Florian Fainelli acknowledge them.
