Documentation: net-sysfs: Remove duplicate PHY device documentation
Both sysfs-bus-mdio and sysfs-class-net-phydev contain the same duplication information. There is not currently any MDIO bus specific attribute, but there are PHY device (struct phy_device) specific attributes. Use the more precise description from sysfs-bus-mdio and carry that over to sysfs-class-net-phydev. Fixes: 86f22d04dfb5 ("net: sysfs: Document PHY device sysfs attributes") Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.
