[PATCH net-next v2 1/3] dt-bindings: net: cdns,macb: add a compatible for Microchip pic64hpsc

From: Charles Perry

Date: Tue Mar 10 2026 - 17:28:08 EST


Add "microchip,pic64hpsc-gem" for "PIC64-HPSC" and
"microchip,pic64hx-gem" for "PIC64HX", compatible with the former.

The generic compatible "cdns,gem" works but offers limited features.
Keep it as a fallback.

The GEM IPs within pic64hpsc have their MDIO controllers
unconnected from any physical pin. Add a check to prevent adding PHYs
under the GEM node.
