Subject: [net-next PATCH 0/3] net: mdio-ipq4019: fix wrong default MDC rate
This was a long journey to arrive and discover this problem.
To not waste too much char, there is a race problem with PHY and driver
probe. This was observed with Aquantia PHY firmware loading.
With some hacks the race problem was workarounded but an interesting
thing was notice. It took more than a minute for the firmware to load
via MDIO.
This was strange as the same operation was done by UBoot in at max 5
second and the same data was loaded.
A similar problem was observed on a mtk board that also had an
Aquantia PHY where the load was very slow. It was notice that the cause
was the MDIO bus running at a very low speed and the firmware
was missing a property (present in mtk sdk) that set the right frequency
to the MDIO bus.
It was fun to find that THE VERY SAME PROBLEM is present on IPQ in a
different form. The MDIO apply internally a division to the feed clock
resulting in the bus running at 390KHz instead of 6.25Mhz.
Searching around the web for some documentation and some include and
analyzing the uboot codeflow resulted in the divider being set wrongly
at /256 instead of /16 as the value was actually never set.
Applying the value restore the original load time for the Aquantia PHY.
This series mainly handle this by adding support for the "clock-frequency"
property.

Subject: [net-next PATCH 1/3] dt-bindings: net: ipq4019-mdio: document now
supported clock-frequency
Document support for clock-frequency and add details on why this
property is needed and what values are supported.
From internal documentation, while other values are supported, the
correct function of the MDIO bus is not assured hence add only the
suggested supported values to the property enum.

Subject: [net-next PATCH 2/3] net: mdio: ipq4019: add support for
clock-frequency property
The IPQ4019 MDIO internally divide the clock feed by AHB based on the
MDIO_MODE reg. On reset or power up, the default value for the
divider is 0xff that reflect the divider set to /256.
This makes the MDC run at a very low rate, that is, considering AHB is
always fixed to 100Mhz, a value of 390KHz.
This hasn't have been a problem as MDIO wasn't used for time sensitive
operation, it is now that on IPQ807x is usually mounted with PHY that
requires MDIO to load their firmware (example Aquantia PHY).
To handle this problem and permit to set the correct designed MDC
frequency for the SoC add support for the standard "clock-frequency"
property for the MDIO node.
The divider supports value from /1 to /256 and the common value are to
set it to /16 to reflect 6.25Mhz or to /8 on newer platform to reflect
12.5Mhz.
To scan if the requested rate is supported by the divider, loop with
each supported divider and stop when the requested rate match the final
rate with the current divider. An error is returned if the rate doesn't
match any value.
On MDIO reset, the divider is restored to the requested value to prevent
any kind of downclocking caused by the divider reverting to a default
value.
While at is also document other bits of the MDIO_MODE reg to have a
clear idea of what is actually applied there.
Documentation of some BITs is skipped as they are marked as reserved and
their usage is not clear (RES 11:9 GENPHY 16:13 RES1 19:17)
