Subject: micrel: ksz8051 badly detected as ksz8031

Dear,

still having trouble debugging why, moving from kernel 3.5.1 to 3.17 i 
don't have
any phy link. This must be an issue of my platform that have to set 
something
additional from my board.c than as in kernel 3.5.1.

Anyway, my hardware has Micrel KSZ8051, but phy probing seems to get 
erroneously
the id KSZ8031 while older kernel 3.5.1 was getting correctly KSZ8051. 
This is
The first thing that make me think that phy link miss due to a bad setup.

The whole mii / mdio / mdio_bus / phy / dacinvi-emac group of drivers is 
really
complex for me to be debugged. Who reads the PHY ID ? Is the wrong PHY 
ID a sign
that mdio is not working properly ?

Kernel 3.5.1
net eth0: attached PHY driver [Micrel KS8051] 
(mii_bus:phy_addr=davinci_mdio-0:00, id=221556)

Kernel 3.17.0
net eth0: attached PHY driver [Micrel KSZ8031] 
(mii_bus:phy_addr=davinci_mdio-0:00, id=221556)

I see phy leds up (both lights up) until the first "Sending discover..." 
message.

My system have: ARM AM1808 (OMAP-L138),
- davinci-emac.c
- RMII and MDIO to interface to Micrel KSZ8051
- sourcinf 50MHZ clock from emac RMII

Every help is appreciated.

Regards,
Angelo
