[PATCH v2 0/3] Add reset deassertion for Aspeed MDIO

[Dylan Hung]

Add missing reset deassertion for Aspeed MDIO. There are 4 MDIOs embedded
in Aspeed AST2600 and share one reset control bit SCU50[3].

[PATCH v2 1/3] dt-bindings: net: add reset property for aspeed, ast2600-mdio binding

[Dylan Hung]

The AST2600 MDIO bus controller has a reset control bit and must be
deasserted before the manipulating the MDIO controller.

Hi Dylan

Please wait at least 24 hours between posting versions, to give other
people times to comment.

The danger here is that my comments on the previous version are going
to get ignored, and this version merged containing the issues i
pointed out.

Please read the netdev FAQ. You need to indicates which networking
tree this is for in the Subject line, and you need to make use of the
correct git tree. You should also have a Fixes: tag, indicating where
the issue was introduced.

Running 'make dtbs_check' with the schema in this patch gives the
following warnings. Consider if they are expected or the schema is
incorrect. These may not be new warnings.

Note that it is not yet a requirement to have 0 warnings for dtbs_check.
This will change in the future.

No bugs fixes, no cc-stable. Especially that you break existing devices...

You break the ABI. This isusually not accepted in a regular kernel and
even totally not accepted accepted for stable kernel.

Thank you for your comment.
The reset deassertion of the MDIO device was usually done by the bootloader (u-boot).
However, one of our clients uses proprietary bootloader and doesn't deassert the MDIO
reset so failed to access the HW in kernel driver.  The reset deassertion is missing in the
kernel driver since it was created, should I add a BugFix for the first commit of this driver?
Or would it be better if I remove " Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org"?

So are you saying mainline u-boot releases the reset?

Yes, that is normal. Ideally the kernel should not depend on u-boot,
because often people want to use other bootloaders, e.g. barebox. You
should also consider kexec, where one kernel hands over to another
kernel, without the bootloader being involved. In such a situation,
you ideally want to assert and deassert the reset just to clean away
any state the old kernel left around.

But please do note, that the reset is optional, since you need to be
able to work with old DT blobs which don't have the reset property in
them.

Thank you. I will let the reset property be optional and modify the error-checking

This rather looks like a missing feature, not a bug. Anyway any
description must be in commit message.
