-Deprecated Binding
-------------------
-
-The deprecated binding makes use of a platform device to represent the
-switches. The switches themselves are not Linux devices, and make use
-of an MDIO bus for management.
-
-Required properties:
-- compatible : Should be "marvell,dsa"
-- #address-cells : Must be 2, first cell is the address on the MDIO bus
- and second cell is the address in the switch tree.
- Second cell is used only when cascading/chaining.
-- #size-cells : Must be 0
-- dsa,ethernet : Should be a phandle to a valid Ethernet device node
-- dsa,mii-bus : Should be a phandle to a valid MDIO bus device node
-
-Optional properties:
-- interrupts : property with a value describing the switch
- interrupt number (not supported by the driver)
-
-A DSA node can contain multiple switch chips which are therefore child nodes of
-the parent DSA node. The maximum number of allowed child nodes is 4
-(DSA_MAX_SWITCHES).
-Each of these switch child nodes should have the following required properties:
-
-- reg : Contains two fields. The first one describes the
- address on the MII bus. The second is the switch
- number that must be unique in cascaded configurations
-- #address-cells : Must be 1
-- #size-cells : Must be 0
-
-A switch child node has the following optional property:
-
-- eeprom-length : Set to the length of an EEPROM connected to the
- switch. Must be set if the switch can not detect
- the presence and/or size of a connected EEPROM,
- otherwise optional.
-
-A switch may have multiple "port" children nodes
-
-Each port children node must have the following mandatory properties:
-- reg : Describes the port address in the switch
-- label : Describes the label associated with this port, special
- labels are "cpu" to indicate a CPU port and "dsa" to
- indicate an uplink/downlink port.
-
-Note that a port labelled "dsa" will imply checking for the uplink phandle
-described below.
-
-Optional property:
-- link : Should be a list of phandles to another switch's DSA port.
- This property is only used when switches are being
- chained/cascaded together. This port is used as outgoing port
- towards the phandle port, which can be more than one hop away.
-
-- phy-handle : Phandle to a PHY on an external MDIO bus, not the
- switch internal one. See
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet.txt
- for details.
-
-- phy-mode : String representing the connection to the designated
- PHY node specified by the 'phy-handle' property. See
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet.txt
- for details.
-
-- mii-bus : Should be a phandle to a valid MDIO bus device node.
- This mii-bus will be used in preference to the
- global dsa,mii-bus defined above, for this switch.
-
-Optional subnodes:
-- fixed-link : Fixed-link subnode describing a link to a non-MDIO
- managed entity. See
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/fixed-link.txt
- for details.
