The XPCS expects clause 73 (copper backplane) autoneg to follow the
ethtool autoneg bit. It actually did that until the blamed
commit inaptly replaced state->an_enabled (coming from ethtool) with
phylink_autoneg_inband() (coming from the device tree or struct
phylink_config), as part of an unrelated phylink_pcs API conversion.
Russell King suggests that state->an_enabled from the original code was
just a proxy for the ethtool Autoneg bit, and that the correct way of
restoring the functionality is to check for this bit in the advertising
mask.

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.
