From f896424cbc61225e8f029fe23e5aae3e32103229 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Porter Date: Wed, 2 Nov 2005 16:13:06 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] phy address mask support for generic phy layer Adds a phy_mask field to struct mii_bus and uses it. This field indicates each phy address to be ignored when probing the mdio bus. This support is needed for the fs_enet and ibm_emac drivers to be converted to the generic phy layer among other drivers. Many systems lock up on probing certain phy addresses or probing doesn't return 0xffff when nothing is found at the address. A new driver I'm working on also makes use of this mask.
