Subject: [PATCH] ethtool: remove mask for Auto in advertise section
Date: Fri,  4 Mar 2011 23:27:01 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1299310021-29027-1-git-send-email-jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> (raw)

From: Emil Tantilov <emil.s.tantilov@intel.com>

The mask for Auto in the advertise section is incorrect for any interface
that supports speeds > 1000Mbps. Since the description already states that
the mask can be a combination of the supported values it's probably better
to just remove it. 'Auto' was misleading anyway.
