This patch adds the Device Tree bindings for the Broadcom GENET Gigabit
Ethernet controller. A bunch of examples are provided to illustrate the
versatile aspect of the hardare.

Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com>

Changes in v5:
- respin due to the CONFIG_OF dependency fix

Changes in v4:
- respin due to the Kconfig dependency

Changes in v3
- improve compatible property description to specify all compatible strings
  supported
- move MDIO bus node to a separate section, to separate from the properties
- detail which exact phy-mode strings are supported and that this refers to
  the ePAPR 'phy-connection-type' modes
- fixed MDIO bus node compatible string to match what is really provided by
  the bootloader and use the same details as for the GENET compatible string
- add address-cells and size-cells required properties for the GENET device
  tree node
- add a better description for the 'fixed-link' property with reference to
  existing binding documentation
- add a reference to the Ethernet PHY device tree binding
- add a description for the interrupts properties
- add a documentation for the optional clocks properties
- removed unused and deprecated device_type properties

Changes in v2:
- rebased against net-next/master

+* Broadcom BCM7xxx Ethernet Controller (GENET)
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should contain one of "brcm,genet-v1", "brcm,genet-v2",
+  "brcm,genet-v3", "brcm,genet-v4".
+- reg: address and length of the register set for the device
+- interrupts: must be two cells, the first cell is the general purpose
+  interrupt line, while the second cell is the interrupt for the ring
+  RX and TX queues operating in ring mode
+- phy-mode: String, operation mode of the PHY interface. Supported values are
+  "mii", "rgmii", "rgmii-txid", "rev-mii", "moca". Analogous to ePAPR
+  "phy-connection-type" values
+- address-cells: should be 1
+- size-cells: should be 1
+
+Optional properties:
+- clocks: When provided, must be two cells, first one is the main GENET clock
+  and the second cell is the Genet Wake-on-LAN clock.
Clocks aren't just cells. They are referred to with phandle +
clock-specificer pairs.

This doesn't document the names that the driver requests the clocks by.
Just listing the clocks isn't sufficient, as any dts will have to add a
clock-names property to get those clocks probed.

Thanks,
Mark.
