Hi,

Seems like AM437x boot is broken on latest linux-next.
Log here:

https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/26351906/

Git bisect pointed me to this patch:

commit fea23fb591cce99546baca043d2a068228e87a79
Author: Russell King [off-list ref]
Date:   Tue Jan 2 10:58:58 2018 +0000

    net: phy: convert read-modify-write to phy_modify()

I saw that there was a double negation issue there and i moved to
Russell's fix patch:

commit f102852f980eac250855504c18f195900616deec
Author: Russell King [off-list ref]
Date:   Fri Jan 5 16:07:10 2018 +0000

    net: phy: fix wrong masks to phy_modify()

Even with this fix commit i am seeing issues.

I reverted the fix and the original patch on linux-next and that solves
the issue.

So there is more to fix in the original patch IMHO.
