Well we always have less man power for up-to-date docs...
("may the sources be with you" :-)

Of course any documentation patches (via send-pr etc) are appreciated.

Combinations of MAC controllers/PHY chips are quite independent
so no trivial way to maintain a list of existing boards.

The simplest way is to put all supported mii devices
(probably you can see it in arch/i386/conf/ALL or dev/mii/files.mii)
into a config file and see which one is matched.
(though other unused drivers simply waste RAMs)

ukphy(4) might work as a generic one if there is no chip
specific PHY drivers.
