[PATCH net-next v2 0/2] Add support for PIC64-HPSC/HX MDIO controller
From: Charles Perry

Hello,
This series adds a driver for the two MDIO controllers of PIC64-HPSC/HX.
The hardware supports C22 and C45 but only C22 is implemented for now.
This MDIO hardware is based on a Microsemi design supported in Linux by
mdio-mscc-miim.c. However, The register interface is completely different
with pic64hpsc, hence the need for a separate driver.
The documentation recommends an input clock of 156.25MHz and a prescaler of
39, which yields an MDIO clock of 1.95MHz.
This was tested on Microchip HB1301 evalkit which has a VSC8574 and a
VSC8541 with clock frequencies of 0.6, 1.95 and 2.5 MHz.
Thanks,
Charles
Changes in v2:
- 1/2: Make "clocks" and "interrupts" required (Andrew)
- 1/2: Add a default value to "clock-frequency" (Andrew)
- 2/2: Remove #define for unused registers (Maxime)
- 2/2: Add "c22" to clause 22 read/write ops (Maxime)
- 2/2: Remove the call to platform_set_drvdata() (Andrew)
- 2/2: Make the clock mandatory (Andrew)
- 2/2: Use 2.5MHz if no clock-frequency was specified (Andrew)
- 2/2: Change the error message for bad clock-frequency (Andrew)
- 2/2: Fix a use without initialization on bus_freq (Andrew)
