[PATCH v2] mdio_bus: Issue GPIO RESET to PHYs.

From: Roger Quadros
Date: Thu Apr 20 2017 - 04:39:53 EST


Some boards [1] leave the PHYs at an invalid state
during system power-up or reset thus causing unreliability
issues with the PHY which manifests as PHY not being detected
or link not functional. To fix this, these PHYs need to be RESET
via a GPIO connected to the PHY's RESET pin.

Some boards have a single GPIO controlling the PHY RESET pin of all
PHYs on the bus whereas some others have separate GPIOs controlling
individual PHY RESETs.

In both cases, the RESET de-assertion cannot be done in the PHY driver
as the PHY will not probe till its reset is de-asserted.
So do the RESET de-assertion in the MDIO bus driver.

[1] - am572x-idk, am571x-idk, a437x-idk

v2:
- add device tree binding document (mdio.txt)
- specify default reset delay in of_mdio.c instead of mdio_bus.c

+Common MDIO bus properties.
+
+These are generic properties that can apply to any MDIO bus.
+
+Optional properties:
+- reset-gpios: List of one or more GPIOs that control the RESET lines
+ of the PHYs on that MDIO bus.
+- reset-delay-us: RESET pulse width as per PHY datasheet.
+
+Example :
+
+ davinci_mdio: ethernet@0x5c030000 {
+ compatible = "ti,davinci_mdio";
+ ti,hwmods = "davinci_mdio";
+ reg = <0x5c030000 0x1000>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+ reset-gpios = <&gpio2 5 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
+ reset-delay-us = <2>; /* PHY datasheet states 1uS min */
+ };
