Hi Andrew,

One question before I prepare the next revision.

As discussed previously, the DTS patch was included only to provide the overall
Ethernet design context during the review of the binding and driver patches:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/64bf6b40-b947-4ffa-8d48-4d6341931327@lunn.ch/ (local)

For the next revision, would it be acceptable to drop the DTS patch from this
series and post only the binding and driver patches? The complete DTS
enablement is planned to be submitted later as a separate series after the
binding and driver have been merged.
What normally happens is that I give an Acked-by: or a Reviewed-by:
for the DT patch, and you submit it for merging via the DT Maintainer.
Everything then meets up in linux-next.

Why do you need to do this later? Why not now?
There is an another seperate DT patch series
[https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260615122016.1110206-1-pinkesh.vaghela@einfochips.com/ (local)]
which is under review.
It also introduces DT nodes for reset, clock, pinctrl, HSP power domain.

Therefore, our planned steps are as follows:
1. In the next net-next v10​ patch series, drop the DTS patches, and submit only
   the bindings and driver.
2. Wait for Pinkesh’s DT patch series​ to be merged.
3. Once the HSPCRG patch series​
   [https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260605060730.1605-1-dongxuyang@eswincomputing.com/ (local)]
   is merged, submit a new DT patch series​ to extend ESWIN EIC7700 SoC support​
   for all HSP modules—including USB, eMMC, SD, and Ethernet, since they are all
   under the HSP bus node eventhough ethernet doese not depend on HSPCRG patch.
In v10 please include some actual description of the series, beyond the
changelog.

Thanks,

Paolo
