Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 1/2] net: dt-bindings: add RGMII TX delay configuration to meson8b-dwmac

This allows configuring the RGMII TX clock delay. The RGMII clock is
generated by underlying hardware of the the Meson 8b / GXBB DWMAC glue.
The configuration depends on the actual hardware (no delay may be
needed due to the design of the actual circuit, the PHY might add this
delay, etc.).

+Optional properties on Meson8b and newer:
+- amlogic,tx-delay-ns:	The internal RGMII TX clock delay (provided
+			by this driver) in nanoseconds. Allowed values
+			are: 0ns, 2ns, 4ns, 6ns.
+			This must be configured when the phy-mode is
+			"rgmii" (typically a value of 2ns is used in
+			this case).
+			When phy-mode is set to "rgmii-id" or
+			"rgmii-txid" the TX clock delay is already
+			provided by the PHY. In that case this
+			property should be set to 0ns (which disables
+			the TX clock delay in the MAC to prevent the
+			clock from going off because both PHY and MAC
+			are adding a delay).
