Hi,

Hi Daniel
This is a 4 year old patch, so i'm kind of surprised nobody noticed
this before. How did you conclude this patch is the problem?
Thanks
Andrew
I just did some debugging to find the -ETIMEDOUT error message which I
tracked back to the waiting routine inside this patch. I did do a high
level bisect jumping between major versions, and the issue seemed to go
away around the time when this patch was added. v3.10 didn't have it,
and one of the version of the kernel immediately after had it, either
v3.11 or v3.12 ..
This phy may not be used often, that might be part of it.
