[PATCH net-next 0/4] New RGMII delay DT bindings for the SJA1105 DSA driver

From: Vladimir Oltean

During recent reviews I've been telling people that new MAC drivers
should adopt a certain DT binding format for RGMII delays in order to
avoid conflicting interpretations. Some suggestions were better received
than others, and it appears we are still far from a consensus.

Part of the problem seems to be that there are still drivers that apply
RGMII delays based on an incorrect interpretation of the device tree,
and these serve as a bad example for others.
I happen to maintain one of those drivers and I am able to test it, so I
figure that one of the ways in which I can make a change is to stop
providing a bad example.

Therefore, this series adds support for the "rx-internal-delay-ps" and
"tx-internal-delay-ps" properties inside sja1105 switch port DT nodes,
and if these are present, they will decide what RGMII delays will the
driver apply.

The in-tree device trees are also updated to follow the new format, as
well as the schema validator.

Changes in v2:
- removed devicetree patches, to be sent via Shawn Guo's tree
- fixed yamllint indentation warnings

dt-bindings: net: dsa: sja1105: fix example so all ports have a
phy-handle of fixed-link
dt-bindings: net: dsa: inherit the ethernet-controller DT schema
dt-bindings: net: dsa: sja1105: add {rx,tx}-internal-delay-ps
net: dsa: sja1105: parse {rx, tx}-internal-delay-ps properties for
RGMII delays
