From 62f3415db237b8d2aa9a804ff84ce2efa87df179 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Fainelli Date: Wed, 26 May 2021 11:46:17 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net: phy: Document phydev::dev_flags bits allocation Document the phydev::dev_flags bit allocation to allow bits 15:0 to define PHY driver specific behavior, bits 23:16 to be reserved for now, and bits 31:24 to hold generic PHY driver flags.
