Hello everyone,

This is V11 for the link topology addition, allowing to track all PHYs
that are linked to netdevices.

This V11 addresses the various netlink-related issues that were raised
by Jakub, and fixes some typos in the documentation.

As a remainder, here's what the PHY listings would look like :
 - eth0 has a 88x3310 acting as media converter, and an SFP module with
   an embedded 88e1111 PHY
 - eth2 has a 88e1510 PHY

# ethtool --show-phys *

PHY for eth0:
PHY index: 1
Driver name: mv88x3310
PHY device name: f212a600.mdio-mii:00
Downstream SFP bus name: sfp-eth0
PHY id: 0
Upstream type: MAC

PHY for eth0:
PHY index: 2
Driver name: Marvell 88E1111
PHY device name: i2c:sfp-eth0:16
PHY id: 21040322
Upstream type: PHY
Upstream PHY index: 1
Upstream SFP name: sfp-eth0

PHY for eth2:
PHY index: 1
Driver name: Marvell 88E1510
PHY device name: f212a200.mdio-mii:00
PHY id: 21040593
Upstream type: MAC
