Hi guys,

This patch allows you to set phy address parameters through ethtool, like:

/bin/ethtool -s eth0 phyad 8

discarded before this.
+ if (ecmd->phy_address <= 31)
+ mdio_phy_addr = ecmd->phy_address;
+ else if (ecmd->phy_address == 32)
+ return -ENODEV;
return 0;
}

I've searched the MAINTAINERS file and haven't seen anything regarding
either the source file name or cris. Please consider applying my
patch to main kernel...

Thanks,
