Hi Paul
I'm i right in saying the driver currently supports the Atheros AT8031
PHY? The same phy which is supported in drivers/net/phy/at803x.c?
If so, i think you are doing this all wrong. You would be much better
off throwing away pch_gbe_phy.c and write a proper MDIO driver. You
then get the PHY driver for free, and the MDIO code could will handle
your GPIO for you, in the standardised way.
