this is the list for anything u-boot related

the bf518f-ezbrd has a ksz8803m on it, but it supports it by open-coding 
things in board/bf518f-ezbrd/bf518f-ezbrd.c.  there's a bit more logic than 
normal due to it handling different revs of the board -- older ones had the 
switch, but newer ones do not, hence it does runtime detection to support one 
binary image for all revs.

i recall seeing people post about ksz switches in general, but i don't think 
that got anywhere, so what we did for the bf518f-ezbrd is probably your best 
bet for now.

I think you need to bug Mike with this stuff.

btw yes, this list should be the right place.
