Subject[PATCH RFCv2 0/6] net: phy: Ethernet PHY powerdown optimization
Date
This is v2 of an RFC sent earlier [1] to reduce power consumption of network
PHYs with link that are either unused or the corresponding netdev is down.

In contrast to RFCv1, this now integrates phy_suspend/phy_resume transparent
to the netdev drivers. Also, phy_suspend now only suspends the PHY if WOL is
disabled. Moreover, the phy state machine calls phy_suspend on entering
HALTED state.

Again, a branch with RFCv2 applied to v3.13-rc2 can also be found at
https://github.com/shesselba/linux-dove.git topic/ethphy-power-rfc-v2

Sebastian Hesselbarth (6):
net: mv643xx_eth: properly start/stop phy device
net: phy: marvell: provide genphy suspend/resume
net: phy: provide phy_resume/phy_suspend helpers
net: phy: resume/suspend PHYs on attach/detach
net: phy: suspend unused PHYs on mdio_bus in late_initcall
net: phy: suspend phydev when going to HALTED
