mainlining shenanigans
0ccf267e34
An MDIO-based n-way restart does not make sense for any of the NICs supported by this driver, nor for the coming EF100. Unlike on Falcon (which was already split off into a separate driver), the PHY on all of Siena, EF10 and EF100 is managed by MC firmware. While Siena can talk to the PHY over MDIO, doing so for anything other than debugging purposes (mdio_mii_ioctl) is likely to confuse the firmware. (According to the SFC firmware team, this support was originally added to the Siena driver early in the development of that product, before it was decided to have firmware manage the PHY.)

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.
