Right, adding something like a genphy_{read,write}_mmd() doesn't make
too much sense for now. What I meant is just exporting mmd_phy_indirect().
Then you don't have to open-code the first three steps of a mmd read/write.
And it requires no additional code in phylib.... but at the cost that the compiler can no longer inline that code, as I mentioned in my previous reply. (However, the cost of the accesses will be higher.) On the plus side, less I-cache footprint, and smaller kernel code. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
