PCS have to work out whether they should enable PCS negotiation by looking at the "mode" and "interface" arguments, and the Autoneg bit in the advertising mask. This leads to some complex logic, so lets pull that out into phylink and instead pass a "neg_mode" argument to the PCS configuration and link up methods, instead of the "mode" argument. In order to transition drivers, add a "neg_mode" flag to the phylink PCS structure to PCS can indicate whether they want to be passed the neg_mode or the old mode argument.

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.
