Why should this be enabled across all arches and OSes?
From: Steve Best on gitlab.com https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1738#note_9012300...
that is what the other phy drivers do.. an example is CONFIG_AQUANTIA_PHY

Enable this only for aarch64 then, and possibly only for ARK. Fedora and the other arches don't need this.

are you planning to open MR to fix all of the other phy drivers?

I think this will be required for x86. It's a valid NIC for EHL.

seems like there are roadblocks to turn on config options for ark.. closing

Why wouldn't it be needed for Fedora?
From: Justin M. Forbes on gitlab.com https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1738#note_9416389...
`Why wouldn't it be needed for Fedora?` It is already enabled for Fedora, and I have no plan to turn it off.
