Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 net-next 11/13] Documentation: Bindings: Update DT
 binding for separating dsaf dev support

Hi Rob and David,

Please see my comments inline.

David have merged this series to net-next, but we need to modify some codes according
to Rob's comments. I am not sure if i need to send V3 for this series, or separate
patches of documentation to independent series and generate a new patch for hns base
on current net-next?

Thanks,

Yisen

There isn't any change of h/w. I separated debug dsaf port from sevice dsaf
port to make the code more simple and readability.

Agree, thanks.

Agree, thanks.

we didn't add support of new h/w. We added these regions to make code simple and readability.
If we need to add support of next h/w version next time, we don't need to add many branches
for these attributes. So we didn't add a new compatible here.

port-id is index for a port in dsaf, it is correspond to index of PHY showed below.

Agree, i am sorry for my carelessness and will pay more attention to it next time.
thank you very much.
