[PATCH net-next v10 14/15] ax88179_178a: Add support for AX88179A/772D/279 EEPROM access
From: Birger Koblitz
Date: Fri Sep 04 2026 - 13:48:23 EST
The AX88179A/772D devices have 32 efuses with 20 bytes each,
which can be randomly programmed. The AX88279 has 16K FLASH.
Provide ethtool read capability for these devices. However,
no write access is provided.
