This patch extends the flags of the phy that's being connected with the port specific flags of the switch port. This is needed to handle a port specific erratum of the KSZ8873 switch, which is added in a later patch. Signed-off-by: Oleksij Rempel <o.rempel@pengutronix.de> ---What happens differently between having this patch and not having it?
Without this patch, the PHY driver will not get the phyflag provided by the DSA driver. Regards, Oleksij -- Pengutronix e.K. | | Steuerwalder Str. 21 | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 |
