I apologize; the output from get_maintainer.pl is very long. I’ve
heard that having too many recipients can cause the PATCH to be
rejected by the LKML mail server.
I have added Wangxun maintainer (Jiawen Wu <jiawenwu at trustnetic.com>
and Mengyuan Lou <mengyuanlou at net-swift.com>) to the CC list.

I am not sure if this is a specific characteristic of Wangxun NICs, as
I do not have any available for testing.
The behavior of the Rockchip DW XPCS IP core matches what is described
in the commit message (even though phylink brings the link to down
based on the phydev link status).
This appears to be a bug (at least on Rockchip platforms) or Wangxun
NICs features.
However, I cannot confirm whether Wangxun NICs behave the same way.
Therefore, I have kept their code as is for now.
Could a Wangxun NICs maintainer provide some feedback based on testing?
If we can confirm that this is indeed a bug, I can submit a separate fix.
I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.
