Public bug reported:
On a system with biosdevname enabled, which names NICs in the forms em*
and p*p*, mii-tool will return the message "no MII interfaces found" if
mii-tool is called without specifying an interface. The correct behavior
would be to iterate through em* and p*p*. (More information on
biosdevname can be found at
http://linux.dell.com/files/whitepapers/consistent_network_device_naming_in_linux.pdf.)
