Wait I'm going to drop this to have the phy init only at the open of the net
on all drivers

Hi Eric,
Regarding the phy issue I have the following plan:
- for -next I think Jean-Christophes phylib will be ready to merge.
Hopefully it will for for you then again. I think this patch is
not necessary anymore then.
- for -master I intend to take the "miidev: fix 1G wrong detection"
patch which should solve your problem for the next release.
Sascha

OK, I'll give a try to -next when I find some time.

Is this really significant on your hardware? I made a measurement here
and the miidev_restart_aneg() takes 130us on an i.MX27 board.
The original intention of doing it at init time was that autonegotation
is already completed when we actually use the network. And this time
really is significant:
without the patch:
barebox@Phytec phyCORE-i.MX27:/ time ping 192.168.23.4
warning: No MAC address set. Using random address 62:FE:FE:0B:09:A8
phy0: Link is up - 100/Full
host 192.168.23.4 is alive

with the patch:
barebox@Phytec phyCORE-i.MX27:/ time ping 192.168.23.4
warning: No MAC address set. Using random address A6:1B:AB:80:FA:E7
phy0: Link is up - 100/Full

that strange. I don't see why miidev_restart_aneg() would take less
time at boot than at open.

Well, it does not really take longer. The difference is that if you are
sitting before your board it usually takes a few seconds to interrupt
autoboot, think what you want to do, and finally enter some network
command. In the meantime autonegotiation will be complete. If we start
autonegotiation at open time, we will always have to wait for the full
autonegotiation time after starting the first network command.

I didn't check but on my board, the problem may be similar to the 1G
wrong detection : if miidev_restart_aneg is trying to acess the phy
when the MII link is not yet initialized, then it would wait 1s for
the reset to timeout in miidev_restart_aneg which would explain why I
save 1s with this patch.
