net: phy: broken turn-around support
This is an attempt at solving the broken turn-around problem in a way that
is not specific to the mdio-gpio driver, since it affects different kinds of
platforms.
We cannot make that localized to PHY device drivers because probing the PHY
device which has a broken turn-around can fail as early as in get_phy_id(),
therefore we need a bit of help from Device Tree/platform_data.

- max-speed: Maximum PHY supported speed (10, 100, 1000...)
+- broken-turn-around: If set, indicates the PHY device does not correctly
+ release the turn around line low at the end of a MDIO transaction.

Example:
ethernet-phy@0 {
ctrl->ops->set_mdio_dir(ctrl, 0);
- /* check the turnaround bit: the PHY should be driving it to zero */
- if (mdiobb_get_bit(ctrl) != 0) {
+ /* check the turnaround bit: the PHY should be driving it to zero, if this
+ * PHY is listed in phy_ignore_ta_mask as having broken TA, skip that
+ */
+ if (mdiobb_get_bit(ctrl) != 0 &&
+ !(bus->phy_ignore_ta_mask & (1 << phy))) {
/* PHY didn't drive TA low -- flush any bits it
* may be trying to send.
*/
phy->irq = mdio->irq[addr];
}
+ if (of_property_read_bool(child, "broken-turn-around"))
+ mdio->phy_ignore_ta_mask |= 1 << addr;

/* Associate the OF node with the device structure so it
* can be looked up later */
