> This patch series extends the Atmel MACB driver to support the Cadence
> GEM (Gigabit Ethernet MAC) to support 10/100 operation. The GEM is
> based on the MACB block but has a few moved registers and bitfields.
> This patch series attempts to use the MACB accessors where block
> functionallity is identical and only overrides to GEM specific
> acccessors when needed.
>
> This has been runtested on a board with a Cadence GEM and compile tested
> for all at91 configurations and a number of avr32 configurations.
>
> Changes since v1:
> - AT91 now provides a fake "hclk" and "macb_clk" has been
> renamed to "pclk" to be consistent with AVR32.
> - Configurable GEM receive buffer size support has been added.
> - pr_foo() and dev_foo() have been converted to netdev_foo()
> where appropriate.
> - New conditional accessors (macb_or_gem_{read,write}l) have
> been introduced that do the conditional accesses dependent on
> macb/gem type.
> - GEM is now dynamically detected from the module ID rather than
> platform device name.
>
> Jean-Christophe, I haven't based this on your conditional clock patch as
> I wasn't sure what decision had been made on that and whether the
> at91/avr32 detection is reliable.
I'm happy to ACK this so you guys can merge this via one of the
