APM X-Gene SoC Ethernet nodes

Ethernet nodes are defined to describe on-chip ethernet interfaces in
APM X-Gene SoC.

Required properties for all the ethernet interfaces:
- compatible: Should state binding information from the following list,
  - "apm,xgene-enet":    RGMII based 1G interface
  - "apm,xgene1-sgenet": SGMII based 1G interface
  - "apm,xgene1-xgenet": XFI based 10G interface
- reg: Address and length of the register set for the device. It contains the
  information of registers in the same order as described by reg-names
- reg-names: Should contain the register set names
  - "enet_csr": Ethernet control and status register address space
  - "ring_csr": Descriptor ring control and status register address space
  - "ring_cmd": Descriptor ring command register address space
- interrupts: Two interrupt specifiers can be specified.
  - First is the Rx interrupt.  This irq is mandatory.
  - Second is the Tx completion interrupt.
    This is supported only on SGMII based 1GbE and 10GbE interfaces.
- channel: Ethernet to CPU, start channel (prefetch buffer) number
  - Must map to the first irq and irqs must be sequential
- port-id: Port number (0 or 1)
- clocks: Reference to the clock entry.
- local-mac-address: MAC address assigned to this device
- phy-connection-type: Interface type between ethernet device and PHY device

Required properties for ethernet interfaces that have external PHY:
- phy-handle: Reference to a PHY node connected to this device

- mdio: Device tree subnode with the following required properties:
  - compatible: Must be "apm,xgene-mdio".
  - #address-cells: Must be <1>.
  - #size-cells: Must be <0>.

  For the phy on the mdio bus, there must be a node with the following fields:
  - compatible: PHY identifier.  Please refer ./phy.txt for the format.
  - reg: The ID number for the phy.

Optional properties:
- status: Should be "ok" or "disabled" for enabled/disabled. Default is "ok".
- tx-delay: Delay value for RGMII bridge TX clock.
	    Valid values are between 0 to 7, that maps to
	    417, 717, 1020, 1321, 1611, 1913, 2215, 2514 ps
	    Default value is 4, which corresponds to 1611 ps
- rx-delay: Delay value for RGMII bridge RX clock.
	    Valid values are between 0 to 7, that maps to
	    273, 589, 899, 1222, 1480, 1806, 2147, 2464 ps
	    Default value is 2, which corresponds to 899 ps
- rxlos-gpios: Input gpio from SFP+ module to indicate availability of
	       incoming signal.


Example:
	menetclk: menetclk {
		compatible = "apm,xgene-device-clock";
		clock-output-names = "menetclk";
		status = "ok";
	};

	menet: ethernet@17020000 {
		compatible = "apm,xgene-enet";
		status = "disabled";
		reg = <0x0 0x17020000 0x0 0xd100>,
		      <0x0 0x17030000 0x0 0x400>,
		      <0x0 0x10000000 0x0 0x200>;
		reg-names = "enet_csr", "ring_csr", "ring_cmd";
		interrupts = <0x0 0x3c 0x4>;
		port-id = <0>;
		clocks = <&menetclk 0>;
		local-mac-address = [00 01 73 00 00 01];
		phy-connection-type = "rgmii";
		phy-handle = <&menetphy>;
		mdio {
			compatible = "apm,xgene-mdio";
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;
			menetphy: menetphy@3 {
				compatible = "ethernet-phy-id001c.c915";
				reg = <0x3>;
			};

		};
	};

/* Board-specific peripheral configurations */
&menet {
	tx-delay = <4>;
	rx-delay = <2>;
        status = "ok";
};
