Hi!

new in this version:
- fixed stuff that was commented on.
- added 7-wire support (compile at least, if someone has the hardware,
        please test!)
- ethtool support
Thanks for this work Domen, comments below...

This is a large patch, and it should be broken up into logical
changes.  ie. split into dts changes, bestcomm changes, fec driver and
mdio driver.  Easier to review that way.  The bestcomm and dts changes
don't need to go to the netdev list.
A similar patch that is already broken up is available for Efika.

No.  That series is Sylvain's full patchset including the old FEC
driver.  Domen's patch is a reworked FEC driver, and it only replaces
patch 0008 from that series.  However, this patch should be split up
further because it makes changes to both the device tree and the
bestcomm code.

Cheers,
g.
