Subject: Re: [PATCH net] net: stmmac: update Rx clk divider for 10M SGMII

You are right here for GENMASK(15,14) | BIT(10). I am using this to create a field value.I will switch to FIELD_PREP as that seems like a better way to do this.

This field programming is required only for 10M speed in for SGMII mode. other speeds are agnostic to this field. Hence we are programming it always when SGMII link comes up in 10M mode. init driver data for ethqos is common for sgmii and rgmii. As this fix is specific to SGMII we can't add this to init driver data.
