Conflicts: drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.c net/ipv4/gre.c The GRE conflict is between a bug fix (kfree_skb --> kfree_skb_list) and the splitting of the gre.c code into seperate files. The FEC conflict was two sets of changes adding ethtool support code in an "!CONFIG_M5272" CPP protected block. Finally the sh_eth.c conflict was between one commit add bits set in the .eesr_err_check mask whilst another commit removed the .tx_error_check member and assignments. Signed-off-by: David S.

menuconfig USB_PHY
bool "USB Physical Layer drivers"
help
- USB controllers (those which are host, device or DRD) need a
- device to handle the physical layer signalling, commonly called
- a PHY.
+ Most USB controllers have the physical layer signalling part
+ (commonly called a PHY) built in. However, dual-role devices
+ (a.k.a. USB on-the-go) which support being USB master or slave
+ with the same connector often use an external PHY.
- The following drivers add support for such PHY devices.
+ The drivers in this submenu add support for such PHY devices.
+ They are not needed for standard master-only (or the vast
+ majority of slave-only) USB interfaces.
+
+ If you're not sure if this applies to you, it probably doesn't;
+ say N here.
