[PATCH net-next 1/3] net: phy: Add binding for vendor specific C45 MDIO address space
The extra property enables the discovery on the MDIO bus of the PHYs which have a vendor specific address space for accessing the C45 MDIO registers.

Disregard that idea then, and let's stick with 'dev-addr'. -- Florian

Hi Florian I think we might get into trouble when we have both c22 and c45 on the same bus. Two different reg formats. I would have to try it and see to be sure. Andrew

I think #address-cells is what was meant here. However, the statement is still not right either. The number of cells is how many cells to encode an address, not how many addresses you have. > > > > Hi Florian > > > > I think we might get into trouble when we have both c22 and c45 on the > > same bus.

Disregard that idea > then, and let's stick with 'dev-addr'. The format would be the same (1 cell for an address), you'd just have 1 address for c22 and 2 addresses for c45 devices which is perfectly fine. However, as I mentioned on the previous version, I'm okay with dev-addr given it seems to be a quirk that isn't always needed. Rob
