Re: [RFC 3/7] net: ethernet: bgmac: move BCMA MDIO Phy code into a separate file

Hi Jon

I know you are just refactoring code, but at some point it would be
good to take a closer look at this MDIO bus driver.

The MDIO bus driver should be generic, allowing access to all 32
addresses on the bus, if that makes sense. You could for example have
a B53 switch hanging off the MDIO bus.... The basic read/write
functions seem to allow this.

It would be good to document what these writes are doing. Also, could
they be moved into the phy driver? Does the PHY implement an ID in
registers 2 and 3 that can be used to determine these are needed?

Also, why is it iterating over 5 PHYs? Is this actually a switch with
5 ports?

Same comment here.

This appears to be resetting one PHY. What about the others? Why not
put this in the PHY driver?

Is there a need to limit this to just the one PHY?

Something which appears to be missing from the later patch which adds
device tree support. If you have a device node pointer, you should use
of_mdiobus_register() and document in the binding that PHYs should be
listed in the usual way.
