It is a good idea to state why it is an RFC. What sort of comments do you want? Andrew

What sort of comments do > you want? In the arch/arm/boot/dts/at91-sama5d3_ksz9477_evb.dts file, they haven't specified the phy-handle. If I use that dts file with this patch, during the mdio_register I get the error *no mdio bus node* and the ksz probe fails. If I update the dts file with phy-handle and mdio node, the mdio_register is successfull and interrupt handling works fine. Do I need to add any checks before mdio_register or updating the dts file is enough? > > Andrew

So you need to support the phy-handle not being present. You can however still add it to at91-sama5d3_ksz9477_evb.dts, have the yaml binding indicate it is a required property, and maybe in 2 years change the driver to make it required. Andrew
