Currently the link state is initialized to "up" when the phy_device is being created. This is not consistent with the phy state being initialized to PHY_DOWN. Usually this doen't do any harm because the link state is updated once the PHY reaches state PHY_AN. However e.g. if a LAN port isn't used and the PHY remains down this inconsistency remains and calls to functions like phy_print_status() give false results. Therefore change the initialization to link being down. Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
