Hi Roger Networking patches should include in the subject line which tree they are for. In this case, net-next.

It would be good to explicitly say that it is in uS as part of the comment. Also, please document that we expect a list of child nodes, one per device on the bus. These should follow the generic phy.txt, or a device specific binding document. > + > +Example : > + It would be good to say something like: This example shows these optional properties, plus other properties required for the TI Davinci MDIO driver.

Sorry for asking for so much in the documentation. That is the problem with the documentation being missing to start with. The code looks good now. Andrew
