Greetings:

The IEEE now has free access to their specs (
http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/ )

In the 802.3-2002, Section 22.2.4.3:
<paraphrase>
Any attempts to read a register in the extended register set, and the
PHY does not implement that register, the phy shall not drive the MDIO
line.  Any attempts for a write of said register will be ignored
</paraphrase>

I've implemented and tested a patch for the mii phy utils:
common/cmd_mii.c
common/miiphyutil.c
include/miiphy.c

I tested on the ocotea board that has phy's that do and do not implement
register 0x0A (master-slave status register)

The patch is attached.

CHANGELOG

	Add Gigabit Ethernet Support to MII PHY utilities



A subsequent patch for the 440GX ethernet will follow.
