> This patch series adds support for retrieving PHY statistics with DSA switches
> when the CPU port uses a PHY to PHY connection (as opposed to MAC to MAC).
> To get there a number of things are done:
> 
> - first we move the code dealing with PHY statistics outside of 
> net/core/ethtool.c
>   and create helper functions since the same code will be reused
> - then we allow network device drivers to provide an ethtool_get_phy_stats 
> callback
>   when the standard PHY library helpers are not suitable
> - we update the DSA functions dealing with ethtool operations to get passed a
>   stringset instead of assuming ETH_SS_STATS like they currently do
> - then we provide a set of standard helpers within DSA as a framework and add
>   the plumbing to allow retrieving the PHY statistics of the CPU port(s)
> - finally plug support for retrieving such PHY statistics with the b53 driver
 ...

Series applied, thanks Florian.
