Subject: mii patches
Date: Wed, 11 Dec 2013 12:41:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1386762077-23205-1-git-send-email-s.hauer@pengutronix.de> (raw)

This makes mii phys found on mii buses available independently of
networks devices. Also it makes all phy devices visible to the
user, not only the one attached to an ethernet device. This makes
the miitool command (or simpler: md -w -s /dev/phyx) more useful

The current mii code allows to only register a phy device when
there's an ethernet device around. This dependency is removed so
that it's possible to register phys without ethernet devices.

With this series the miitool gets a -s option to scan all registered
mii buses for devices which can be examined afterwards. This is
implemented with the device 'detect' mechanism, so a 'detect -a'
or 'detect miibus0' is also possible to detect phys.
