This patch series update PHYLIB to read whether the PHY is actually capable of stopping its clocks during EEE low power modes.
One problem (not the only one) with phy_init_eee() is that it takes a clk_stop_enable argument that the caller has no idea how to determine. This patch series makes the PHY library read whether the PHY is capable of stopping its clock (after config_init has been called) which will allow future patches to rename clk_stop_enable into something that conveys an intention (and therefore could fail if the PHY does not support it).
