fast ethernet LXT972A support

I noticed that only LXT970 and 971 are supported in the lastest kernel
distribution from DENX. But the comments in fec.c say "includes support
for following PHYs: QS6612, LXT970, LXT971/2". Does it mean that LXT972
can use 971's driver? If not, basically what kind of modification is
needed? Thanks.

After looking into LXT971/972 datasheets, I believe LXT972 can use 971's
driver. Thanks.

Hi,

I'm using the LXT971 settings for an LXT972 on a 857 board and It's running
fine...

Regards, Stephan
