[ Upstream commit 6dbdd4de0362c37e54e8b049781402e5a409e7d0 ]
On some Meteor Lake systems accessing the PHY via the MDIO interface may
result in an MDI error. This issue happens sporadically and in most cases
a second access to the PHY via the MDIO interface results in success.
As a workaround, introduce a retry counter which is set to 3 on Meteor
Lake systems. The driver will only return an error if 3 consecutive PHY
access attempts fail. The retry mechanism is disabled in specific flows,
where MDI errors are expected.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
