This is required by the realtek PHY driver for:
* rtl8261n.bin (package "rtl8261n-firmware" or "rtl8261n-lp-firmware")
- RTL8251L 5Gbps PHY
- RTL8261BE 10Gbps PHY
- RTL8261N 10Gbps PHY
* rtl8264b.bin (package "rtl8264b-firmware")
- RTL8254B 5Gbps PHY
- RTL8264 10Gbps PHY
- RTL8264B 10Gbps PHY
These PHY chips need a sequence of register writes for initialization.
These are provided as firmware files which are interpreted/applied by a
new register patch engine.
For the moment, the patch instructions in rtl8261-firmware and
rtl8264b-firmware are the same as from the rtl8261n driver. This should
make it possible to first evaluate the patch engine and driver development
for switching over in adjusting the patch instructions.
