It is better. It fixes the default values for ARM 32bit
bcm2835_defconfig and ARM 64bit defconfig, so you can add:
Tested-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprow...@samsung.com>
There is still an issue there. In case of ARM 64bit, when Genet driver
is configured as a module, BROADCOM_PHY is also set to module. When I
changed Genet to be built-in, BROADCOM_PHY stayed selected as module.
This case doesn't work, as Genet driver is loaded much earlier than the
rootfs/initrd/etc is available, thus broadcom phy driver is not loaded
at all. It looks that some kind of deferred probe is missing there.
