Hi Antoine

This patches is looking good now. One nit. The description above
suggests Kirkwood, Dove, Orion5x, MV78xx0, Armada 370 and Armada XP
all have xmdio. Maybe better wording would be:

The Ethernet controllers of the Marvel Kirkwood, Dove, Orion5x,
MV78xx0, Armada 370, Armada XP, Armada 7k and Armada 8k have an
identical unit that provides an interface with the MDIO bus.
Additionally, Armada 7k and Armada 8k has a second unit which
provides an interface with the xMDIO bus. This driver handles
these interfaces.
