Florian Fainelli ab6016e0c1 of: mdio: Add a "broken-turn-around" property
Some Ethernet PHY devices/switches may not properly release the MDIO bus
during turn-around time, and fail to drive it low, which can be seen by
some controllers as a read failure, while the data clocked in is still
correct.

Add a boolean property "broken-turn-around" which is parsed by the
generic MDIO bus probing code and will set the corresponding bit in the
MDIO bus phy_ignore_ta_mask bitmask for MDIO bus drivers to utilize that
information.

PHY nodes
Required properties:
- interrupts : <a b> where a is the interrupt number and b is a
field that represents an encoding of the sense and level
information for the interrupt. This should be encoded based on
the information in section 2) depending on the type of interrupt
controller you have.
- interrupt-parent : the phandle for the interrupt controller that
services interrupts for this device.
- reg : The ID number for the phy, usually a small integer
Optional Properties:
- compatible: Compatible list, may contain
"ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22" or "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c45" for
PHYs that implement IEEE802.3 clause 22 or IEEE802.3 clause 45
specifications. If neither of these are specified, the default is to
assume clause 22. The compatible list may also contain other
elements.
If the phy's identifier is known then the list may contain an entry
of the form: "ethernet-phy-idAAAA.BBBB" where
AAAA - The value of the 16 bit Phy Identifier 1 register as
4 hex digits. This is the chip vendor OUI bits 3:18
BBBB - The value of the 16 bit Phy Identifier 2 register as
4 hex digits. This is the chip vendor OUI bits 19:24,
followed by 10 bits of a vendor specific ID.
- max-speed: Maximum PHY supported speed (10, 100, 1000...)
- broken-turn-around: If set, indicates the PHY device does not correctly
release the turn around line low at the end of a MDIO transaction.
Example:
ethernet-phy@0 {
compatible = "ethernet-phy-id0141.0e90", "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22";
interrupt-parent = <40000>;
interrupts = <35 1>;
reg = <0>;
};
