I'd think that mdio-i2c.c is for generic code. When adding a
vendor-specific protocol, wouldn't it make sense to use a dedicated
source file for it?

Hi Heiner

There is no standardised way to access MDIO over i2c. So the existing
code is vendor code, even if it is used by a few different vendors.

OK, I see. Thanks, Andrew.
