 Hi,
 
 it would take some till I get 6.1 ready here - sorry.
 But I've a look at our runnning systems.
 
 It looks like that the interface now works.
 I've seen it running in some of our 5.1.2 Installations.
 In 4.x it looks still broken - at least all systems with that release do 
 not use this interface.
 
 My 5.1.2 version includes updates from current for if_wm.c and some phy, 
 so I cannot say if it is fixed in the release itself.
 
 Because I've done no own changes to the phy-implementations - just 
 updates from current with sometime backporting due to kernelchanges - 
 there is a working version of makphy for this board in current available.
 
 If you want a commitment that it works in 6.1. release, you have to wait 
 some time.
 At the moment if_wm.c and all phy-implementation is from 6.1-release in 
 my 6.1 version. (That my change, if the ipsec processing related 
 MP-locking problem has not been solved in 6.1 - a different aproach as 
 mine has been integrated there ...)
 
 Otherwise I think you can close this old PR.
 
 best regards
 
 W. Stukenbrock
