Hi Nikita

Russell King submitted a similar patch a couple of days ago.

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1102091/

Since he was first, we should probably take his, once he respins the
series.

Florian: Could you take a second look at
[net-next,1/4] net: phylink: support for link gpio interrupt
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1102090/

Everything else in that patchset is good to go.

	Thanks
