Do you have a lite5200 board that exhibits the same bad FEC behavior.  
If so you could try the new
version on it and see if things improve.

We are working with MPC5200 cpu. 
We've been using it since early 2.6 kernel versions.
We're currently quite stabilished with the version of the kernel Sylvain
had before the Platform Device rework. But the problem is that we are
experiencing that the FEC stops working after a long uptime.

So, do you think that the current git version is more stable than the
one we are using? Do you think that there is anything that could stop us
upgrading to the latest version?

The problem is that we have a custom board, with some custom devices, so
it is not so easy to upgrade. We need to know that a new version, is
more stable than the previous one, before we upgrade. As soon as we
upgrade, we can help if we find any problem.

Thank you,
