Hi Marek

Please continue the conversion and remove all mii_calls.

ks8851_set_link_ksettings() calling mii_ethtool_set_link_ksettings()
is not good, phylib will not know about changes which we made to the
PHY etc.

Hi,

I noticed a couple of drivers implement both the mii and mdiobus options, I was pondering why is that. Is there some legacy backward compatibility reason for keeping both or is it safe to remove the mii support completely from the driver?

Either way, I will do that in a separate patch, so it could be reverted if it breaks something.
