The patchset adds support for disabling a PHY feature that may cause packet loss, and also cleans up the atheros.c driver a bit.
As part of the cleanup, there are also some functional changes for the AR8035 in the RGMII internal delay area. Due to a mistake, RGMII Tx internal delay used to be implicitly always enabled. This is now corrected. Users of this driver may need to update their bindings to explicitly request the Tx internal delays back.
Changes in v3: * Replaced all magic numbers with macros * Squashed "net: phy: ar803x: Use phy_read_mmd and phy_write_mmd functions" into new "net: phy: ar803x: Clarify the configuration of the CLK_25M output pin" patch * Fixed unconditional enabling of RGMII TxID for AR8035
