> The Marvell chips have one internal SMI device per port, containing a
> set of registers used to configure a port's link, STP state, default
> VLAN or addresses database, etc.
> 
> This patchset creates port files to implement the port operations as
> described in datasheets, and extend the chip ops structure with them.
> 
> Patches 1 to 6 implement accessors for port's STP state, port based VLAN
> map, default FID, default VID, and 802.1Q mode.
> 
> Patches 7 to 11 implement the port's MAC setup of link state, duplex
> mode, RGMII delay and speed, all accessed through port's register 0x01.
> 
> The new port's MAC setup code is used to re-implement the adjust_link
> code and correctly force the link down before changing any of the MAC
> settings, as requested by the datasheets.
> 
> The port's MAC accessors use values compatible with struct phy_device
> (e.g. DUPLEX_FULL) and extend them when needed (e.g. SPEED_MAX).
> 
> Changes in v2:

>   - Strictly use new _UNFORCED values instead of re-using _UNKNOWN ones.

Series applied, thanks Vivien.
