From 2c9826243bebeb90a57a7946d4144a2a9a43dc39 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Ertman Date: Thu, 1 May 2014 02:19:03 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] e1000e: Restrict MDIO Slow Mode workaround to relevant parts It has been determined that the workaround of putting the PHY into MDIO slow mode to access the PHY id is not necessary with Lynx Point and newer parts. The issue that necessitated the workaround has been fixed on the newer hardware. We will maintains, as a last ditch attempt, the conversion to MDIO Slow Mode in the failure branch when attempting to access the PHY id so as to cover all contingencies.
