like, it takes your SyncE and clock output settings and actually applies them. main character behaviour, honestly.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int mxl86110_synce_clk_cfg (struct phy_device *phydev );

that's it. one arg. iconic minimalism 🫶

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• phydev — pointer to the phy_device 👑 this is the PHY you're configuring, no cap.

🎀 NOTE 🎀

okay bestie, listen, this one's important: this function assumes the caller already holds the MDIO bus lock or otherwise has exclusive access to the PHY. 🔒 like, it is NOT doing that for you. you gotta bring your own lock, fr fr. do not come in here unlocked, that's giving race condition 😭

• negative errno code — not slay, something went wrong 💀
