Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] Add support for PHY packet generators

Some Ethernet PHYs contain a simple packet generator. This can be
useful for bringing up new devices, trying to determine if a problem
lies in the MAC-PHY connection or PHY-Socket. Also, the PHY generators
can generate invalid packets, which is hard to do in software.

Add support ethtool(1) and wire up the Marvell PHY packet generator.
