This is V17 of the phy_link_topology series, aiming at improving support
for multiple PHYs being attached to the same MAC.

V17 is mostly a rebase of V16 on net-next, as the addition of new
features in the PSE-PD command raised a conflict on the ethtool netlink
spec, and patch 10 was updated :

	("net: ethtool: pse-pd: Target the command to the requested PHY")

The new code was updated to make use of the new helpers to retrieve the
PHY from the ethnl request, and an error message was also updated to
better reflect the fact that we don't only rely on the attached PHY for
configuration.  
I lack the confidence to take this during the merge window, without
Russell's acks. So Deferred, sorry :(
Understood. Is there anything I can make next time to make that series
more digestable and easy to review ? I didn't want to split the netlink
part from the core part, as just the phy_link_topology alone doesn't
make much sense for now, but it that makes the lives of reviewers
easier I could submit these separately.

Thanks,

Maxime
