Smc network IPs can be wired up in different funny ways. For example the
lubbock pxa25x development platform wires all address lines shifted by
2, ie. bus A2 is smc91c96 A0, bus A3 is smc91c96 A1 etc ...

In order to cope with the different possible combination without
clobbering the driver, allow the platform data to provide specific
accessors, and put the wiring mess inside.

By default, the old behaviour using the 32 bit accesses is kept.

All the smcs family chips 91c94, 91c96, 91c100, 91c111 share almost the
same behavior and register sets. The noticeable exceptions are coped
with in this patch, ie :
 - 91c94 and 91c96 only have an internal 10 Mbps phy
   The registers used for phy discovery on later chips will corrupt the
   91c96 state.
 - 91c94 and 91c96 have a control and config register quite different
   from their 91c1xx conterparts
   A platform data user defined couple of registers is introduced. If
   these values are 0, 91c1xx legacy behavior is assumed.

Yeah I know, connecting the 91c111 inspired the board designers to many
funny things. Passing function pointers in platform_data is not very
future proof since this doesn't work with device tree. I see that the
Linux driver has device tree support. Does this binding work for you?

Well, it can't, because lubbock doesn't support device-tree yet, it's on
my todo list for the kernel (and barebox of course). That means there is
no way to even build a device-tree enabled kernel for lubbock ... yet.

Now the binding would work with :
 - the address shift being declared (as in kernel driver)
 - a set of 16 bit accessors being declared in barebox's smcs9111.c
   driver (and not in platform specific accessors)

Would you rather have me change the approach with a new set of accessor
in smcs9111.c, and the shift as a parameter (both platform_data and device-
tree) ?

Cheers.

That sounds better. Using accessors in platform_data really is more
flexible, but when switching to device tree we'll need a width/shift
approach anyway.

Ok, I'm on it, for v2.

Cheers.
