[PATCH net-next v2 0/2] net: phy: sfp: Add single-byte SMBus SFP access

[Maxime Chevallier <maxime.chevallier@bootlin.com>]

Hello everyone,

This is V2 for the single-byte SMBus support for SFP cages as well as
embedded PHYs accessed over mdio-i2c.

Discussions in V1 [1] with Russell and Andrew showed that we should be mor
conservative with SMBus access, as it is either stated as non-compliant
with SFF-8472 for diag data, or simply blurry as to how well this will work
with Copper modules.

Tests on a variety of modules show that it looks OK however this is
really not enough to guarantee that it will work with all modules, so in
this V2 we :
 - Disable hwmon
 - Print a big warning indicating that it may not work as expected, but
   more importantly that the kernel isn't to blame, but rather the HW
   design.

I've added Sean's tested-by tags, I hope that's OK given I've added the
new flag to disable hwmon.
