The Microchip LAN78XX family of devices are Ethernet controllers with
a USB interface. Despite being discoverable devices it can be useful to
be able to configure them from Device Tree, particularly in low-cost
applications without an EEPROM or programmed OTP.
Document the supported properties in a bindings file.

+Microchip LAN78xx Gigabit Ethernet controller
+
+The LAN78XX devices are usually configured by programming their OTP or with
+an external EEPROM, but some platforms (e.g. Raspberry Pi 3 B+) have neither.
+The Device Tree properties, if present, override the OTP and EEPROM.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be one of "usb424,7800", "usb424,7801" or "usb424,7850".
+
+Optional properties:
+- local-mac-address: see ethernet.txt
+- mac-address: see ethernet.txt
+- microchip,led-modes: a 0..4 element vector, with each element configuring
+ the operating mode of an LED. Omitted LEDs are turned off. Allowed values
+ are defined in "include/dt-bindings/net/microchip-78xx.h".
+
+Example:
+
+/* Standard configuration for a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ */
+&usb {
+ usb1@1 {
+ compatible = "usb424,2514";
+ reg = <1>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ usb1_1@1 {
+ compatible = "usb424,2514";
+ reg = <1>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ ethernet: usbether@1 {
+ compatible = "usb424,7800";
+ reg = <1>;
+ local-mac-address = [ 00 11 22 33 44 55 ];
+ microchip,led-modes = <
+ LAN78XX_LINK_1000_ACTIVITY
+ LAN78XX_LINK_10_100_ACTIVITY
+ >;
+ };
+ };
+ };
+};
