Yeah I wasn't sure. http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/net-next.html says
it is still open. But anyway, if not, I'll resend the patch after
the merge window. I've also thought about splitting it into two
individual patches, because they aren't dependent on each other
anymore.

We'll need the page support anyway, even if phy_config_inband_aneg
will change. Ok granted, the cover letter might be misleading then.
