Documentation: net: phy: reflect latest changes to phylib API
Recent changes to the phylib API - removed phy_stop_interrupts - replaced phy_start_interrupts with phy_request_interrupt - moved some functionality from phy_connect() and phy_disconnect() to phy_start() and phy_stop() respectively. Reflect these changes in the documentation. Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Lastly, once the controller is ready to handle network traffic, you call

phy_start(phydev). This tells the PAL that you are ready, and configures the

PHY to connect to the network. If you want to handle your own interrupts,

just set phydev->irq to PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT before you call phy_start.

Similarly, if you don't want to use interrupts, set phydev->irq to PHY_POLL.

phy_start() enables the PHY interrupts (if applicable) and starts the

When you want to disconnect from the network (even if just briefly), you call

phy_stop(phydev).

phy_stop(phydev). This function also stops the phylib state machine and
