Hello,
The rm9200 boards use the dedicated at91_ether driver instead of the
regular macb driver.
Both the macb and at91_ether drivers can be compiled as separated
modules.
Since the at91_ether driver uses code from the macb driver, at91_ether.ko
depends on macb.ko.
However the macb.ko module always fails to load on rm9200 boards: the
macb_probe() function expects a hclk clock which doesn't exist on rm9200.
Then the at91_ether.ko can't be loaded in turn due to unresolved
dependencies.
This series of patches fix this issue by merging at91_ether into macb.
This series depends on this one [1].
Best Regards,
Boris
Changes since v2:
- rebase after changed brought by [1]
Changes since v1:
- rework probe functions to share common probing logic
