This could be a problem if one wants to configure an external PHY via phylink, since it use the same phandle to get the PHY. To fix this, introduce a dedicated pcs-handle to point to the PCS/PMA PHY and deprecate the use of pointing it with phy-handle. A similar use case of pcs-handle can be seen on dpaa2 as well. --- patch v5 --- - Re-apply the v4 patch on the net tree. - Describe the pcs-handle DT binding at ethernet-controller level. --- patch v6 --- - Remove "preferrably" to clearify usage of pcs_handle. --- patch v7 --- - Rebase the patch on latest net/master --- patch v8 --- - Rebase the patch on net-next/master - Add "reviewed-by" tag in PATCH 3/4: dt-bindings: net: add pcs-handle attribute - Remove "fix" tag in last commit message since this is not a critical bug and will not be back ported to stable. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
