It doesn't really make sense for phydev->master_slave_set (the user requested AN master/slave configuration) to take the value MASTER_SLAVE_CFG_UNSUPPORTED. That only exists, AFAICS, to detect implementations which don't report phydev->master_slave_get and phydev->master_slave_state. Permit the most trivial of drivers to exist, that where .config_aneg() accepts any user request, and is implemented as: /* We support anything */ phydev->master_slave_get = phydev->master_slave_set; This is currently rejected by ethnl_update_linkmodes() with the message "master/slave configuration not supported by device", precisely because lsettings->master_slave_cfg (which came from phydev->master_slave_get through phy_ethtool_ksettings_get()) is MASTER_SLAVE_CFG_UNSUPPORTED (coming from phydev->master_slave_get, see implementation above). By making phydev->master_slave_set never hold UNSUPPORTED, we avoid the above confusion (driver does implement master/slave but still gets detected as unsupported by core) without special casing in the driver.
