This patch (commit 7e7c059cb50c7c72 in gpio/for-next) breaks Ethernet on
r8a7795/salvator-x:

    libphy: ravb_mii: probed
[1] gpio_rcar e6052000.gpio: sense irq = 11, type = 8
    ravb e6800000.ethernet eth0: Base address at 0xe6800000,
2e:09:0a:00:83:1e, IRQ 131.
    ...
[2] gpiochip_irq_reqres: gpiochip e6052000.gpio
[3] gpio_rcar e6052000.gpio: gpio_rcar_direction_input: 11
[4] gpiochip_irq_reqres: desc->flags = 0x0
    ravb e6800000.ethernet eth0: limited PHY to 100Mbit/s
    Micrel KSZ9031 Gigabit PHY e6800000.etherne:00: attached PHY
driver [Micrel KSZ9031 Gigabit PHY]
(mii_bus:phy_addr=e6800000.etherne:00, irq=206)
    Waiting up to 110 more seconds for network.
    Waiting up to 100 more seconds for network.
    ...

Reverting it fixes the issue.

phy0 in arch/arm64/boot/dts/renesas/r8a7795-salvator-x.dts

        phy0: ethernet-phy@0 {
                ...
                interrupt-parent = <&gpio2>;
                interrupts = <11 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW>;
        };

sets up the GPIO for interrupt mode, cfr. [1] in the kernel output above.

This configures the GPIO for plain input mode, cfr. [3] above, basically
undoing the configuration from [1]. Hence interrupts no longer come through,
and Ethernet fails.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
