Should ethernet drivers dictate interface name in user space nowadays?
I would prefer if you didn't.

I am trying these patches on a custom T1042 board using Linux 4.1 but
I cannot get Fixed PHY to work:
libphy: PHY fixed-0:00 not found
fsl_dpa dpaa-ethernet.2 eth2: Could not connect to PHY fixed-0:00
fsl_dpa dpaa-ethernet.2 eth2: init_phy() = -19

Not sure what I have missed here, any ideas?

 Jocke

PS.
    I would really appreciate if you could add new revisions of the FMAN/DPAA driver(s)
    to http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/ppc/upstream/linux.git/
