Your example lists 5Mhz, so I assume this is of some use for you on the platform you are working with? My concern is that this might not be compatible with all PHY devices out there and might create hard to debug issues where you get some MDIO transactions to succeeds and some which don't. -- Florian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
