The first patch adds a framework for phy specific support to specify their own function to access extended phy registers, return a failure code if not supported, or to default to libphy's IEEE defined method for accessing the mmd extended phy registers. This issue was found by using the Synopsys EMAC and a Micrel ksz9021 phy on the Altera Cyclone 5 SOC development kit. This patch was tested on the same system in both positive and negative test cases. --- V4: Correct error when formatting V3 patch - erroneous text cut from code V3: Correct formatting of function arguments, remove return statement from NULL functions, and add patch for PHY driver documentation per review comments. V2: Split the original patch submission into seperate patches for the libphy framework required for the modification and for the Micrel Phy.
