Doug Berger says: ==================== net: bcmgenet: restore internal EPHY support I managed to get my hands on an old BCM97435SVMB board to do some testing with the latest kernel and uncovered a number of things that managed to get broken over the years (some by me ;). This commit set attempts to correct the errors I observed in my testing. The first commit applies to all internal PHYs to restore proper reporting of link status when a link comes up. The second commit restores the soft reset to the initialization of the older internal EPHYs used by 40nm Set-Top Box devices. The third corrects a bug I introduced when removing excessive soft resets by altering the initialization sequence in a way that keeps the GENETv3 MAC interface happy. Finally, I observed a number of issues when manually configuring the network interface of the older EPHYs that appear to be resolved by the fourth commit. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
