My apologies for this next RFC taking so long. Life got in the way. The patch set in general is to add support for the VSC7511, VSC7512, VSC7513 and VSC7514 devices controlled over SPI. The driver is relatively functional for the internal phy ports (0-3) on the VSC7512. As I'll discuss, it is not yet functional for other ports yet.Since series touches fwnode, please Cc next time to Daniel Scally.
Thank you. I will do this next time. For my future reference, is there a way that I could have known this? Or is this just knowledge that comes with experience? The email list I got was from running the patch set through get_maintainers.
It also appears [1] that somewhere in PHY code a bug is hidden (at least I think so).
Thank you for this information. I'll keep an eye out!
