Since "drivers: net: stmmac: reworking the PCS code" ->pcs_ctrl_ane()
had been taking iomem address to access as the first argument; its
predecessor (->ctrl_ane()) used to take struct mac_device_info instead.
One of the callers had not been converted; as the result, instead of
reading and modifying a word in card iomem we read and modify a word
in (or near) the in-core strucct mac_device_info.

Yikes...
Al, can you split the bug fixes like this one into a separate series
for me to pull into my net GIT tree?
Don't include the pure annotation or partial endianness conversion
ones, those should go to net-next.

This looks like a nasty bug,
I haven't seen a resubmission of this.
Would be a shame if it just went forgotten.
