[RFC PATCH 0/4] net: mvmdio: close the gaps between mv643xx_eth and mvmdio

[Florian Fainelli]

Hi all,

This patch series attempts to close the gaps between the SMI/MDIO driver
implemented and use by the Marvell MV643XX ethernet driver and Thomas' MVMDIO
driver. I did not convert yet mv643xx_eth to use it as it would require proper
Device Tree bindings (which is being worked on) to easily hook into it.

Note that I could not test this properly yet, thus the RFC, and I would like to
find a better way of setting/getting the PHY address than using two exports,
although I have tried to make them easy enough to use so the following logic in
Ethernet drivers can be used:

- lookup device tree handle from MDIO device tree node
- lookup corresponding struct platform_device from the device tree handle
- call the helpers

Comment welcome!

Florian Fainelli (4):
  net: mvmdio: rename base register cookie from smireg to regs
  net: mvmdio: do not assume SMI reg is at offset 0 of the resource
  net: mvmdio: enhance driver to support SMI error/done interrupts
  net: mvmdio: add getter and setter for PHY addresses
