[BUG] at91: macb: does not work

[Jiří Prchal]

Hi,
in v4.1-rc8 does not work ethernet. It normally gets up, but no data are going through.

[    4.400000] macb f802c000.ethernet (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized): invalid hw address, using random

In v4.0.5 it's working.

I bisected it and found:

     net: macb: remove #if defined(CONFIG_ARCH_AT91) sections

     With multi platform support those sections could lead to unexpected
     behavior if both ARCH_AT91 and another ARM SoC using the MACB IP are
     selected.
     Add two new capabilities to encode the default MII mode and the presence
     of a CLKEN bit in USRIO register.
     Then define the appropriate config for IPs embedded in at91 SoCs.
