> Subject: [PATCH 6/9] net: avoid copies before linkmode_and()
>
> Avoid separate linkmode_copy() calls by passing the original source
> bitmap directly to linkmode_and().
>
> In phy_ethtool_ksettings_set(), also use the return value of
> linkmode_and() when validating that the requested advertisement
> contains a supported link mode.
