I have tried to look for phylink_mii_c22_pcs_decode_state() and I
have found it only here [1], and seems that it depends on [2]. But not
much activity happened to these series since October.
Do you think they will still get in?
I don't see any reason the first two patches should not be sent. I'm
carrying the second one locally because I use it in some changes I've
made to the mv88e6xxx code - as I mentioned in the patchwork entry you
linked to. See:
http://git.armlinux.org.uk/cgit/linux-arm.git/log/?h=net-queue
"net: phylink: Add helpers for c22 registers without MDIO"
Although I notice I committed it to my tree with the wrong author. :(
Sean, please can you submit the mdiodev patch and this patch for
net-next as they have general utility? Thanks.
The mdiodev patch is already in the tree as 0ebecb2644c8 ("net: mdio:
Add helper functions for accessing MDIO devices"). The c22 patch is
submitted as [1].
