This patch series does the following ---> Add support for gmii2rgmii converter. ---> Add support for gmii2rgmii converter in the macb driver. The Gigabit Media Independent Interface (GMII) to Reduced Gigabit Media Independent Interface (RGMII) core provides the RGMII between RGMII-compliant Ethernet physical media devices (PHY) and the Gigabit Ethernet controller. This core can be used in all three modes of operation(10/100/1000 Mb/s). The Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) interface is used to configure the Speed of operation. This core can switch dynamically between the three Different speed modes by configuring the conveter register through mdio write. The conveter sits b/w the MAC and external phy like below MACB <==> GMII2RGMII <==> RGMII_PHY MDIO <========> GMII2RGMII MCAB <=======> <========> RGMII Using MAC MDIO bus we can access both the converter and the external PHY. We need to program the line speed of the converter during run time based On the external phy negotiated speed.
