As I've noted before, with v2022.07 being released, we have gone 2 years past the DM_ETH migration deadline. What this series does is a few things:
- Remove some boards that either lack DM migration at all, or lack OF_CONTROL. DM migration has had an explicit deadline, and OF_CONTROL an implict one.
- Remove some un-migrated ethernet drivers. I had reached out in private to some people about this and they had hoped to have done the conversion by now. Unfortunately, here we now are.
- Perform some minor forceful migrations on boards. These boards use OF_CONTROL and drivers which use DM_ETH, so I am hopeful that just removing or guarding the code here is fine and works.
- Disable networkgin on some other boards. Unlike boards in the above case, it looks like the board code itself needs some updates, as was done on the platforms that have already been migrated.
- Finally, select DM_ETH for all NETDEVICES and update dependencies.
This series depends on https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/8ae444f17dc5db69a1da809875a... being applied and in practical terms depennds on my current outstanding Kconfig migrations as well.
Adding back the CC list git send-email dropped...
Just following up here as I got some acks/feedback on the platforms that will be loosing functionality, but not as much as I hoped. I will be applying this series soon.
