[PATCH v3 3/5] drivers: net: phy: Add MDIO driver

2016-07-04 Thread Iyappan Subramanian
Currently, SGMII based 1G rely on the hardware registers for link state and sometimes it's not reliable. To get most accurate link state, this interface has to use the MDIO bus to poll the PHY. In X-Gene SoC, MDIO bus is shared across RGMII and SGMII based 1G interfaces, so adding this driver to
