Process related comments:

1. Don't prefix a patch with "net: dsa: microchip: " unless it touches
the drivers/net/dsa/microchip/ folder.

2. Don't make unrelated patches on different drivers part of the same
patch set.

3. AFAIU, this is the second fixup of a feature which never worked well
(changing master/slave setting through ethtool). Not sure exactly
what are the rules, but at some point, maintainers might say
"hey, let go, this never worked, just send your fixes to net-next".
I mean: (1) fixes of fixes of smth that never worked can't be sent ad
infinitum, especially if not small and (2) there needs to be some
incentive to submit code that actually works and was tested, rather
than a placeholder which can be fixed up later, right? In this case,
I'm not sure, this seems borderline net-next. Let's see what the PHY
library maintainers think.

The code seems ok, I couldn't find flaws in it.
