Hi Rodolfo

Humm, that needs testing. There are two used combinations you need to
test:

No MDIO node in device tree, e.g.
arch/arm/boot/dts/kirkwood-dir665.dts

MDIO node in device tree, e.g:
arch/arm/boot/dts/vf610-zii-dev-rev-b.dts

There is a third combination which will appear soon. There is only the
external mdio bus in device tree:

                                port@9 {
                                        reg = <9>;
                                        label = "eth_cu_1000_2";
                                        phy-handle = <&phy9>;
                                        phy-mode = "sgmii";
                                        managed = "in-band-status";
                                };
                        };

                        mdio1 {
                                compatible = "marvell,mv88e6xxx-mdio-external";
                                #address-cells = <1>;
                                #size-cells = <0>;

                                phy9: phy9@0 {
                                        compatible = "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c45";
                                        pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_gpio_phy9>;
                                        pinctrl-names = "default";
                                        interrupt-parent = <&gpio2>;
                                        interrupts = <30 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW>;
                                        reg = <0>;
                                };
                        };

Here port 9 uses the external MDIO bus and all the other ports
implicitly make use of the internal MDIO bus.
