Hi Greg -
Please apply bfe72442578b ("net: phy: micrel: fix crash when statistic
requested for KSZ9031 phy") to 4.9.y.
Since at least 4.9.95 (this was discussed during 4.9.95 release cycle),
'ethtool --phy-statistics eth0' causes a system crash on micrel systems.
This is still happening, and this patch fixes the issue.
Thanks!
Dan
