>Description:
There is a bug in if_bce.c:bce_get_media() when checking for SerDes:

	if (sc->bce_phy_flags && BCE_PHY_SERDES_FLAG) {

Note "&&" instead of "&".

The way the code is structured everything works out fine because
->bce_phys_flags will be true iff BCE_PHY_SERDES_FLAG is set.
Still, this is confusing and is a potential error waiting to happen.

>Fix:
"&&" -> "&"
