Your patch arrived just when I travelled to Japan for a month, and then it got burried in my inbox. Now that it has resurfaced, and that an issue that prevented i.MX8MP from booting with v6.19-rc has been fixed, I'll rebase my kernel and finally fix that problem. Once again, thank you for all your help with this issue, you have been extremely helpful and I'm very grateful. > So, at the moment, "net: stmmac: provide flag to disable EEE" ain't > going anywhere until there's a patch that makes use of the new flag. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
