I'm ok with this series, but I really don't like cpsw-phy-sel in general.
It was introduced long time back and now I'm thinking about possibility to replace it with
one of current generic interfaces - for example mux-controller.
Each port will control up to 3 muxes (port mode, idmode and rmii_ext_clk) and
transform phy-mode => mux states.
What do you think?
Another option is to use phy, but it'd be complicated.
