A quick ping on this, how do I best proceed here?
Do I keep the original commit and take in account the feedback for the
commit message or should I e.g. like Tristram recommended just modify
it to 2 regmap reg ranges for these PHY registers?
I don't have enough practical regmap experience to understand Tristram
suggestion, TBH. Is he saying to collapse multiple ranges into one by
extending it to register that are currently not used? Or to somehow
ignore high bits? Rhetorical question, see below..
In that case I might just as well modify this commit to make this
modification for all the existing regmap reg range arrays defined.
(There's probably also something to say about enforcing these ranges
across more chips but that's a bit outside the scope of what I'm
trying to do here)
Whatever makes the changes easier to review. If the combined commit is
small (per stable rules) and easy to review follow the feedback. If
it's easier to review the fix and then cleanup separately - separate.
