Subject: [PATCH v3 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.

Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@....com>

v2->v3:
- reformat tables
- delete obsolete netlink attributes and document new ones
v1->v2: patch is new

+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``

+``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
+``ETHTOOL_A_HEADER_FLAGS``. The attribute will be empty if driver did not
