Gasket needs a different configuration for 10BaseT than for higher
speeds.

Signed-off-by: Timo Ketola <timo@exertus.fi>

Changes in v4:
- Rewrapped commit message

Changes in v2:
- Dropped patches 2 and 3 so this one changed from 5 to 3
- Rebased to u-boot-imx next
- Removed the remove of 'miiphy_duplex' call
- Changed 'speed == _100BASET' to 'speed != _10BASET' to not to break
    _1000BASET
- Changed configuration option to put gasket into RMII mode from
    !CONFIG_MII to CONFIG_RMII. I'm not too sure how this should be
    done though. !CONFIG_MII is normally used for this but its original
    purpose was to enable MII *management* interface, I think...

While this change seems to make sense, it could break some boards. 
Please split out to a separate patch,
and leave as !defined(CONFIG_MII) for this patch.

Please explain how. Every board using fec_mxc define CONFIG_MII - they have to:

#ifndef CONFIG_MII
#error "CONFIG_MII has to be defined!"
#endif

Does every board that has a gasket define CONFIG_RMII?

Or are you saying that every board with a gasket is already broken?

That should be
  "Or are you saying that every board using a reduced pin code is alread 
broken?"

Can you fix 10BASET for non-reduced pin count boards as well?

Are they broken? How? If they are, I'm afraid I don't have a board to test.

Our board will be first.

Yes, if there were one. Is there?

>>> Does every board that has a gasket define CONFIG_RMII?

as far as I can see, there are some inconsistencies. All boards define
CONFIG_MII, but they really need CONFIG_RMII, because only with my last
patch I set the gasket for MII. The driver has always set in a fixed way
the gasket for RMII, independently if CONFIG_RMII or CONFIG_MII was set,
and that is also wrong.

I would say that the configuration file of most boards using fec_mxc
must be changed.

And then fec_mxc.c does not need at all these lines:
#ifndef CONFIG_MII
#error "CONFIG_MII has to be defined!"
#endif

Boards are compiled clean without them. Correct me if I am wrong, but it
seems the correct way to do is to drop the unneeded check in the above
lines and sets CONFIG_RMII for all boards except the only one
(ima3-mx53), that needs really MII.

Ah, so, to answer Troy, there really is RMII boards (which maybe was obvious to 
all others than me; I reasoned in wrong direction: because they would be 
already broken with this code, there could be none) and they were already broken.

Functionally this does nothing of course but I can imagine the reasoning behind 
that check: If I understand correctly, fec_mxc depends on MII management 
interface (for example miiphy_wait_aneg). Then, if CONFIG_MII is not defined, 
there is inconsistency because configuration says "don't use MII" but fec_mxc 
still uses it. I don't know whether this causes any confusion.

Agreed regarding CONFIG_RMII. With dropping the check I'm OK either way. 
Furthermore, I might like to propose to change the name of the configuration 
variable CONFIG_MII to CONFIG_MII_MGM or something like that. That might reduce 
confusion (at least I have been quite confused).

Quite right, you have the second board. The ima3 board I added uses also
MII instead of RMII. However, I think that something went wrong, as I
understand rereading the code.

It creates some confusion...

Support for MX28 added recently CONFIG_FEC_XCV_TYPE. To augment the
confusion, CONFIG_FEC_XCV_TYPE is set to MII100 as default, and this let
assume that most boards are running with MII if they do not define it.
Really all MX5 boards use RMII, not MII. Not only, by setting the RCR
register, there is an attempt to set reserved bits on MX5 SOCs, because
MX5 defines only bits 0-5. It seems that writing to reserved bits does
not produce effects, but it is quite dangerous and not compliant with
SOC manual.

So at the end we have multiple configuration switches (CONFIG_MII,
CONFIG_RMII, and CONFIG_FEC_XCV_TYPE) to set the same thing, and this is
not really good ;-((

I assume that setting CONFIG_FEC_XCV_TYPE as default to MII100 was to
avoid to break building not MX28 boards, but as you can see generates
other problems. I think it is really better that there is *no* default,
and each board sets explicitely its own type.

Instead of using CONFIG_MII or CONFIG_RMII, we can make use of
CONFIG_FEC_XCV_TYPE, as it was already introduced, but making it
consistent for all boards.

Support for MII in FEC is in u-boot-imx/next in the last patch, and it
is not yet merged. I think I am going to drop that patch from my tree,
so that we start again from a clean situation (mainline).
