Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/3] net: phy: Create sysfs reciprocal links for attached_dev/phydev

Hi David, Andrew,

This patch series addresses a device topology shortcoming where a program
scanning /sys would not be able to establish a mapping between the network
device and the PHY device.

In the process it turned out that no PHY device documentation existed for
sysfs attributes.

Thanks!

Changes in v2:

- document possible phy_interface values in sysfs-class-net-phydev

Florian Fainelli (3):
  net: phy: Create sysfs reciprocal links for attached_dev/phydev
  net: sysfs: Document "phydev" symbolic link
  net: sysfs: Document PHY device sysfs attributes
