Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2][net-next] gianfar: Add ethtool -A support for pause
 frame

Thanks,

First patch seems to include the complete implementation of ethtool -A,
fixing the pause issue for half-duplex links as well, and it also
implements pause autoneg. (nice)
I'm going to apply an test this code and re-spin the resulting
patch(es).
Are you the author of this patch?
(gianfar: implement flow control handling)
