Subject: Fwd: [PATCH] phydev: Add sysctl variable for polling interval of phy

Subject: [PATCH] phydev: Add sysctl variable for polling interval of phy state

This adds a dev.phy.phy_poll_interval sysctl variable. This value is represented in milliseconds.
And phy_state_machine() is scheduled as this variable. 
I think HZ is enough for PC. But sometimes especially in network devices
such as switches,routers, needs more granularity for detecting phy state change.
