As I mentioned when you brought that up, are you asking me to document
the _entire_ adjust_link() callback, because _no_ documentation of it
currently exists.  The only thing I can find that documents this function
is Documentation/networking/phy.txt:

" First, you need a function to react to changes in the link state.  This
 function follows this protocol:

   static void adjust_link(struct net_device *dev);"

which tells people nothing about what's required from that function.
