Russell King c114574ebf net: phy: add PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GBASER
Recent discussion has revealed that the use of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR
is incorrect. Add a 10GBASE-R definition, document both the -R and -KR
versions, and the fact that 10GKR was used incorrectly.

Linus Torvalds 937d6eefc7 Here's the main documentation changes for 5.5:
- Various kerneldoc script enhancements.
 
  - More RST conversions; those are slowing down as we run out of things to
    convert, but we're a ways from done still.
 
  - Dan's "maintainer profile entry" work landed at last.  Now we just need
    to get maintainers to fill in the profiles...
 
  - A reworking of the parallel build setup to work better with a variety of
    systems (and to not take over huge systems entirely in particular).
 
  - The MAINTAINERS file is now converted to RST during the build.
    Hopefully nobody ever tries to print this thing, or they will need to
    load a lot of paper.
 
  - A script and documentation making it easy for maintainers to add Link:
    tags at commit time.
 
 Also included is the removal of a bunch of spurious CR characters.

Russell King e3cf8b3668 net: phy: remove phy_ethtool_sset()
There are no users of phy_ethtool_sset() in the kernel anymore, and
as of commit 3c1bcc8614 ("net: ethernet: Convert phydev advertize
and supported from u32 to link mode"), the implementation is slightly
buggy - it doesn't correctly check the masked advertising mask as it
used to.

Remove it, and update the phy documentation to refer to its replacement
function.

Russell King 8c25c0cb5b doc: phy: document some PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_xxx settings
There seems to be some confusion surrounding three PHY interface modes,
specifically 1000BASE-X, 2500BASE-X and SGMII.  Add some documentation
to phylib detailing precisely what these interface modes refer to.
