Subject: [PATCH 0/2] net: qcom/emac: ensure that pause frames are enabled

The qcom emac driver experiences significant packet loss (through frame
check sequence errors) if flow control is not enabled and the phy is
not configured to allow pause frames to pass through it.  Therefore, we
need to enable flow control and force the phy to pass pause frames.

Timur Tabi (2):
  net: qcom/emac: configure the external phy to allow pause frames
  [v2] net: qcom/emac: enable flow control if requested
