[PATCH] net: phy: realtek: Add tx/rx delay config for 8211e

Some boards need to change the tx/rx delay config in order for gigabit Ethernet to work.
In Linux commit bbc4d71d6354 ("net: phy: realtek: fix rtl8211e rx/tx delay config"), Realtek documented the bits for overriding the delays from the hardware straps.
Copy the logic from linux, so the delay config is set from the PHY's interface type (the phy-mode property in the device tree).
This removes the need for a one-off workaround for the Pine A64+ board.
Signed-off-by: Samuel Holland samuel@sholland.org --- This change is needed for the Allwinner D1 Nezha board, which has incorrect hardware straps.

OK, so this breaks my pine64+. It's the 1GB memory model from the original Kickstarter with an 8211e on it. My dhcp just times out now, with this applied. Let me know if there's some specifics you want me to try for debug or talk to me off-list and I can try and setup access to the board for you.

Many thanks for testing and the report. I will have a closer look tonight, I should have quite some boards to be able to reproduce it.

Some boards need to change the tx/rx delay config in order for gigabit Ethernet to work.
In Linux commit bbc4d71d6354 ("net: phy: realtek: fix rtl8211e rx/tx delay config"), Realtek documented the bits for overriding the delays from the hardware straps.
Copy the logic from linux, so the delay config is set from the PHY's interface type (the phy-mode property in the device tree).
This removes the need for a one-off workaround for the Pine A64+ board.

This change is needed for the Allwinner D1 Nezha board, which has incorrect hardware straps.
OK, so this breaks my pine64+. It's the 1GB memory model from the original Kickstarter with an 8211e on it. My dhcp just times out now, with this applied. Let me know if there's some specifics you want me to try for debug or talk to me off-list and I can try and setup access to the board for you.
Many thanks for testing and the report. I will have a closer look tonight, I should have quite some boards to be able to reproduce it.
Ah good. And yes, good news / bad news, this board is now in my every-PR local CI HW loop :)

I'm dropping the patch, will check it again once v2 is uploaded.
