What is confusing is that the sentence makes it sound like it's some generic driver that can be used for any PCS, whereas in reality it is _this_ XPCS driver which is not generic. "This driver will support setting a custom device ID in a future patch." or explicitly state the summary line of the patch concerned so one can refer to it. Future references are difficult to find whether they're in email and especially once they're merged into git. > It can be used for instance to > fix the already available SJ1105 and SJ1110 MDIO bus implementations, > so instead of substituting the XPCS IDs on the PHYSID CSR reads the > driver could just pass the device ID and PMA ID via the device > platform data. > > If my patch log text looks unclear anyway, just say so.

There was something which I didn't understand, so I raised the issue. Sorry for spotting a problem, but do you always get arsey when a reviewer picks up on something wrong? If that's your attitude, then for this entire series: NAK. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
