Hi,

This looks to me like it's write-only, does it serve a useful purpose?

This doesn't seem to be used outside of nvt_gmac_setup().

Given the above two comments, do you actually need struct nvt_priv_data ?

Each of these could be moved into a separate function:

static int nvt_gmac_get_delay(struct device *dev, const char *property)
{
	u32 arg;

	if (of_property_read_u32(dev->of_node, property, &arg))
		return 0;

	if (arg > 2000) {
		dev_err(dev, "Invalid %s argument.\n", property);
		return -EINVAL;
	}

	if (arg == 2000)
		return 15;

	return arg / NVT_PATH_DELAY_STEP;
}

then:
	int ret;

	ret = nvt_gmac_get_delay(dev, "tx-internal-delay-ps");
	if (ret < 0)
		return ERR_PTR(ret);

	tx_delay = ret;

	ret = nvt_gmac_get_delay(dev, "rx-internal-delay-ps");
	if (ret < 0)
		return ERR_PTR(ret);

	rx_delay = ret;

+

You can move this inside the switch above under the RGMII case. Theses
delays are, after all, only for RGMII.

Consider:

	regmap_update_bits(bsp_priv->regmap, miscr,
			   NVT_TX_DELAY_MASK | NVT_RX_DELAY_MASK |
			   NVT_MISCR_RMII, reg);

+
+	/* Nuvoton DWMAC configs */
+	plat_dat->core_type = DWMAC_CORE_GMAC;
Is the hardware not compatible with any of the compatible types that
devm_stmmac_probe_config_dt() will automatically set this for you?
Which version of the core do you have?
+	plat_dat->tx_fifo_size = 2048;
+	plat_dat->rx_fifo_size = 4096;
There are tx-fifo-depth / rx-fifo-depth properties that can be used to
describe these in DT.
+	plat_dat->multicast_filter_bins = 0;
+	plat_dat->unicast_filter_entries = 8;
If this core is v3.50, v3.70 or v3.72, then there are
snps,multicast-filter-bins and snps,perfect-filter-entries which
can be used to describe both of these.

Thanks.
