Subject: [PATCH RFC net-next 0/3] net: phy: sfp: Warn when using generic PHY driver

Hi all,

This patch series allows warning an user that the generic PHY driver(s)
are used when a SFP incorporates a PHY (e.g: 1000BaseT SFP) which is
likely not going to work at all.

Let me know if you would want to do that differently.

Florian Fainelli (3):
  net: phy: Add helpers to determine if PHY driver is generic
  net: phy: sfp: Issue warning when using Generic PHY driver(s)
  net: phy: Default MARVELL_PHY to the value of SFP
