That the same IP block be present on systems using GENET and BCMBCA
routers, absolutely, but it is not really the same. The one present on
BCM6846 has an extra pair of registers adjacent to it:
LVL_IRQ_CLEAR
LVL_IRQ_MASK
There are other differences like bit 13 defining a "free running" MDIO
clock, that has never been present in any of the GENET or ASP variants
of mdio-bcm-unimac.
Therefore an updated compatible string would be in order IMHO, thanks!
