> This patchset factorizes the legacy and new SMI probing and abstracts
> the switch register accesses. This simplifies adding support for new
> chips or alternative register accesses.
> 
> This will allow us to use a compatible chip info to describe how to
> access the SMI device and its switch ID register at probe time.
> 
> For the legacy probe, we fix the compatible info to 88E6085. For the
> MDIO probe, we will use the compatible info from the device node data.
> 
> All patches are reviewed.

Series applied, thanks Vivien.
