Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 03/12] docs: ethtool-netlink: document interface for MAC Merge layer
Show details about the structures passed back and forth related to MAC
Merge layer configuration, state and statistics. The rendered htmldocs
will be much more verbose due to the kerneldoc references.

+If ``ETHTOOL_A_MM_SUPPORTED`` is reported as false, the other netlink
+attributes will be absent.
+
+The attributes are populated by the device driver through the following
+structure:
+
+.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/ethtool.h
+ :identifiers: ethtool_mm_state
+
+The ``ETHTOOL_A_MM_VERIFY_STATUS`` will report one of the values from

+ :identifiers: ethtool_mm_verify_status
+
+If ``ETHTOOL_A_MM_VERIFY_ENABLED`` was passed as false in the ``MM_SET``
+command, ``ETHTOOL_A_MM_VERIFY_STATUS`` will report either
+``ETHTOOL_MM_VERIFY_STATUS_INITIAL`` or ``ETHTOOL_MM_VERIFY_STATUS_DISABLED``,
+otherwise it should report one of the other states.
+
+It is recommended that drivers start with the pMAC disabled, and enable it upon
+user space request. It is also recommended that user space does not depend upon
+the default values from ``ETHTOOL_MSG_MM_GET`` requests.
+
+``ETHTOOL_A_MM_STATS`` are reported if ``ETHTOOL_FLAG_STATS`` was set in
