Doug Berger 25382b991d net: bcmgenet: reset 40nm EPHY on energy detect
The EPHY integrated into the 40nm Set-Top Box devices can falsely
detect energy when connected to a disabled peer interface. When the
peer interface is enabled the EPHY will detect and report the link
as active, but on occasion may get into a state where it is not
able to exchange data with the connected GENET MAC. This issue has
not been observed when the link parameters are auto-negotiated;
however, it has been observed with a manually configured link.

It has been empirically determined that issuing a soft reset to the
EPHY when energy is detected prevents it from getting into this bad
state.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
