Hi,
No ETA right now. There's not only the LS1021ATRW board, there are also a lot 
of 
legacy PowerPC platforms that would have to be converted too. All the platforms
featuring the TSEC h/w will have to be verified as well. Converting the TSEC 
driver
to work only for the ls1 twr board will break the other platforms.
Is there a urgent need to move to the new DM ETH model? Ensuring backward
compatibility, not breaking legacy platforms is the most important part here and
I don't have the bandwidth to do that right now.

Thanks,
Claudiu
