Currently the NCSI driver sends a select-package command to all possible packages simultaneously to discover what packages are available. However at this stage in the probe process the driver does not know if hardware arbitration is available: if it isn't then this process could cause collisions on the RMII bus when packages try to respond. Update the probe loop to probe each package one by one, and once complete check if HWA is universally supported. Signed-off-by: Samuel Mendoza-Jonas <sam@mendozajonas.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
