Re: [PATCH] net: phy: smsc: force all capable mode if the phy is started in powerdown mode

 static int smsc_phy_config_init(struct phy_device *phydev)
 {
-	int rc = phy_read(phydev, MII_LAN83C185_CTRL_STATUS);
+	/*
+	 * If the SMSC PHY is in power down mode, then set it
+	 * in all capable mode before using it.
+	 */
+	int rc = phy_read(phydev, MII_LAN83C185_SPECIAL_MODES);

This is formatted poorly.  Do not put comments above the basic
block variable declarations, it looks terrible.

Also, comments in the networking code should be formatted:

	/* Like
	 * this.
	 */

	/*
	 * Not like
	 * this.
	 */

Thanks.
