From: Stefano Radaelli <stefano.r at variscite.com>
Update the FEC Ethernet controller on the i.MX8MM VAR-SOM to match the
latest SOM hardware revision using the integrated MaxLinear MXL86110 PHY.
This patch adds:
- PHY VDDIO 1.8V supply regulator.
- Proper reset timings for the MXL86110.
- LED configuration for link/activity indication via the LED subsystem
under /sys/class/leds/, leveraging the support in the MXL86110 PHY
driver.
Two LEDs are defined to match the VAR-SOM carrier design:
* LED at 0: Yellow, netdev trigger.
* LED at 1: Green, netdev trigger.
- A pinctrl sleep state for low-power operation.
The PHY reset is now handled in the SOM .dtsi using the SoC GPIO.
The previous carrier-specific reset-gpios property in the Symphony
device tree is therefore removed.
The enet_rst GPIO hog on the carrier is kept to ensure a defined
board-level reset line state during boot.
Wake-on-LAN via magic packet is not supported at the VAR-SOM level and
is therefore not enabled in the SOM device tree nor in the official
evaluation carrier board configuration (symphony).
Designs requiring WoL support may enable it in their own carrier-specific
device trees if properly integrated at the hardware level.
