It seems we're using different versions of English, because your v4 is
still wrong.

Want I want for the phylink change is to see the hunk that changes
struct phylink_config ONLY and NOT any of the individual method
configuration.  In other words, I want:

diff --git a/include/linux/phylink.h b/include/linux/phylink.h

But I don't want:

and the rest of those in that file.

I really don't think I could have been clearer without creating the
damn patch for you.

Second thoughts, don't bother, I'll do it myself, the amount of effort
wasted here is rediculous, and I really don't want to go round this
loop yet again.

Thanks for pointing the issues out.
