David Daney 6bd47ac2e4 netdev/phy/of: Handle IEEE802.3 clause 45 Ethernet PHYs in of_mdiobus_register()
Define two new "compatible" values for Ethernet
PHYs. "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22" and "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c45"
are used to indicate a PHY uses the corresponding protocol.

If a PHY is "compatible" with "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c45", we
indicate this so that get_phy_device() can properly probe the device.

If get_phy_device() fails, it was probably due to failing the probe of
the PHY identifier registers.  Since we have the device tree telling
us the PHY exists, go ahead and add it anyhow with a phy_id of zero.
There may be a driver match based on the "compatible" property.

PHY nodes
Required properties:
- device_type : Should be "ethernet-phy"
- 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
- linux,phandle : phandle for this node; likely referenced by an
ethernet controller node.
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.
Example:
ethernet-phy@0 {
compatible = "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22";
linux,phandle = <2452000>;
interrupt-parent = <40000>;
interrupts = <35 1>;
reg = <0>;
device_type = "ethernet-phy";
};
