From 7a6f109709d1b07e83a538cc63bb958525304a25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Wed, 15 Dec 2010 19:13:50 +0000 Subject: ethtool: Remove MII ioctls from TODO list Ethernet drivers generally support the ethtool API now, and the mii, mdio and phy libraries make it easy to do so using generic MDIO registers. I see no point in adding a fallback here. Further, using SIOCDEVPRIVATE with arbitrary drivers is a really bad idea.
