This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: phy: use boolean dt properties for eee broken modes to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-phy-use-boolean-dt-properties-for-eee-broken-modes.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Mon Jul 3 11:00:33 CEST 2017 From: jbrunet <jbrunet@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 19 Dec 2016 16:05:37 +0100 Subject: net: phy: use boolean dt properties for eee broken modes From: jbrunet <jbrunet@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 57f3986231bb2c69a55ccab1d2b30a00818027ac ] The patches regarding eee-broken-modes was merged before all people involved could find an agreement on the best way to move forward. While we agreed on having a DT property to mark particular modes as broken, the value used for eee-broken-modes mapped the phy register in very direct way. Because of this, the concern is that it could be used to implement configuration policies instead of describing a broken HW. In the end, having a boolean property for each mode seems to be preferred over one bit field value mapping the register (too) directly.
