commit 8b74964c73ca9eed7078388d871cc7fae973cb63 Author: John W. Linville Date: Mon Jul 19 16:35:20 2010 -0400 rtl8180: improve signal reporting for rtl8185 hardware The existing code seemed to be somewhat based on the datasheet, but varied substantially from the vendor-provided driver. This mirrors the handling of the rtl8185 case from that driver, but still neglects the specifics for the rtl8180 hardware. Those details are a bit muddled... Signed-off-by: John W.
