I'm not sure what's dangerous about this. If the device tree is
working in Linux, it should be working in U-Boot, right?

We can probably solve this through a Kconfig option.

But then, if it's working in u-boot right now, I'm not really sure
what it's trying to fix?

[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/1] sunxi: Fix A20-OLinuXino-MICRO dts for LAN8710

[Stefan Mavrodiev]

From revision J the board uses new phy chip LAN8710. Compared
with RTL8201, RA17 pin is TXERR. It has pullup which causes phy
not to work. To fix this PA17 is muxed with GMAC function. This
makes the pin output-low.

There's two issues with that patch:
   - In general we try to sync the DT with Linux when we can, and the
 patch that ended up in Linux wasn't this one.

I'm little confused. If I sync the DT with the one from mainline linux,
doesn't this counts as dangerous? I mean it will be the only one that is 
synced.

This could corrupt building if sun7i-a20.dtsi is not synced for example.

   - And we don't have any pinctrl support in U-Boot, that patch will
 basically do nothing

The code that changes the muxing is here:
http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=blob;f=board/sunxi/gmac.c#l34

Again, since this is common for all boards, doesn't it counts as dangerous?
This is feature only on our board.

Hi Stefan,

You should also put Jagan Teki as recipients.
