Re: [PATCH] phy state machine: failsafe leave invalid RUNNING state

The setup is as follows:
mv88e6321:
* ports 0+1 connected to fibre-optics transceivers at fixed 100 Mbps
* port 4 is CPU port
* custom phy driver (replacement for marvell.ko) only populated with
* .config_init to
* set fixed speed for ports 0+1 (when in FO mode)
* run genphy_config_init() for all other modes (here: CPU port)
* .config_aneg=genphy_config_aneg, .read_status=genphy_read_status
Kicking off a side discussion:
Why do a custom PHY driver? What cannot you do with the current DSA
code? I've got boards with two FO ports, and using fixed-phy is all i
need to make them work on a 6352.
