Add support for SFP hotpluggable modules via sfp-bus and phylink. This supports both copper and optical SFP modules, which require different Serdes modes in order to properly negotiate the link. Optical SFP modules typically require the Serdes link to be talking 1000BaseX mode - this is the gigabit ethernet mode defined by the 802.3 standard. Copper SFP modules typically integrate a PHY in the module to convert from Serdes to copper, and the PHY will be configured by the vendor to either present a 1000BaseX Serdes link (for fixed 1000BaseT) or a SGMII Serdes link. However, this is vendor defined, so we instead detect the PHY, switch the link to SGMII mode, and use traditional PHY based negotiation.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
