    kernel: RTL8211FVD: restore disabling of PHY-mode EEE
    
    This patch fixes a bug in a patch we backported.
    
    This patch was cherry picked from upstream Linux because it references a
    patch we backported in the fixes tag.
    
    Fixes: 48c9e5509407 ("kernel: backport upstream Realtek PHY patches")

+Subject: net: phy: RTL8211FVD: Restore disabling of PHY-mode EEE
+
+When support for RTL8211F(D)(I)-VD-CG was introduced in commit
+bb726b753f75 ("net: phy: realtek: add support for RTL8211F(D)(I)-VD-CG")
+the implementation assumed that this PHY model doesn't have the
+control register PHYCR2 (Page 0xa43 Address 0x19). This
+assumption was based on the differences in CLKOUT configurations
+between RTL8211FVD and the remaining RTL8211F PHYs. In the latter
+commit 2c67301584f2
+("net: phy: realtek: Avoid PHYCR2 access if PHYCR2 not present")
+this assumption was expanded to the PHY-mode EEE.
+
+I performed tests on RTL8211FI-VD-CG and confirmed that disabling
+PHY-mode EEE works correctly and is uniform with other PHYs
+supported by the driver. To validate the correctness,
+I contacted Realtek support. Realtek confirmed that PHY-mode EEE on
+RTL8211F(D)(I)-VD-CG is configured via Page 0xa43 Address 0x19 bit 5.
+
+Moreover, Realtek informed me that the most recent datasheet
+for RTL8211F(D)(I)-VD-CG v1.1 is incomplete and the naming of
+control registers is partly inconsistent. The errata I
+received from Realtek corrects the naming as follows:
+
+| Register                | Datasheet v1.1 | Errata |
+|-------------------------|----------------|--------|
+| Page 0xa44 Address 0x11 | PHYCR2         | PHYCR3 |
+| Page 0xa43 Address 0x19 | N/A            | PHYCR2 |
+
+This information confirms that the supposedly missing control register,
+PHYCR2, exists in the RTL8211F(D)(I)-VD-CG under the same address and
+the same name. It controls widely the same configs as other PHYs from
+the RTL8211F series (e.g. PHY-mode EEE). Clock out configuration is an
+exception.
+
+Given all this information, restore disabling of the PHY-mode EEE.
+
