Subject: Re: [PATCH] DSA support for Micrel KSZ8895
Micrel has some drivers on their web site to support some chips. For
that chips they do virtual mdio over spi.
And driver is available on download page:
http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/en/KSZ8895
Documentation->Software library.
Both driver and DSA driver. Driver has to work with some minor fixups
related to your kernel version. But I think they are don't care about
up-streaming that code.
So you can take their code as a reference.
