Subject: [PATCH ethtool v3 0/2] Adding downshift support to ethtool

Hi All,

(This is a re-post of the v3 patch set with a new cover letter - I was not
aware that the cover letters was used as commit comments in merge commits).

This patch implements for set/get downshifting.

Downshifting can either be turned on/off, or it can be configured to a
specifc count.

"count" is optional.

Tested on Beaglebone Black with VSC 8531 PHY.

Change set:
v1:
- Initial version of set/get phy tunable with downshift feature.
v2:
- (ethtool) Syntax is changed from "--set-phy-tunable downshift on|off|%d"
  to "--set-phy-tunable [downshift on|off [count N]]" - as requested by
  Andrew.
v3:
- Fixed Spelling in "ethtool-copy.h:sync with net" 
- Fixed "if send_ioctl() returns an error, print the error message and then
  still print th value of count".

Raju Lakkaraju (2):
  ethtool-copy.h:sync with net
  Ethtool: Implements ETHTOOL_PHY_GTUNABLE/ETHTOOL_PHY_STUNABLE and PHY
    downshift
