Hi Heiner
Documentation/networking/phy.txt has a section "Doing it all yourself"
It would be good to review that, and make sure that documentation is
still valid. I'm not sure any MAC driver actually does do it all
itself. So it might be worth reviewing the whole document and making
updates to remove parts of the text.
