This patch fixes some annoying messages like 'Error reading PHY register' and
'Hardware Erorr' and saves several seconds on reboot.

Any networking-related patches should also include net...@vger.kernel.org.

I'm also a bit confused how the changes below match the patch description. Elaborating a bit more how the changes suppress the messages might be a good thing.

What do the ethtool additions have to do with this patch? The patch description really doesn't seem to cover why these are here.
