The fuji-data64.dts was copied from fuji.dts mainly for larger
persistent data partition (64MB), and the latest fuji.dts includes
fuji-data64.dts (instead of vice versa) because we wish to deprecate
fuji.dts in the long term.

So it is a regression for fuji, but fuji-data64.dts is a new node..

My original plan is to add mac3 back to fuji-data64.dts (which will fix
fuji.dts) when the rgmii fix is ready in aspeed mac driver, but I can
add it back now if we need to fix the fuji regression asap. Please
suggest.

BTW, the current mac3 settings work in real fuji hardware because rgmii
delay is configured in u-boot.


Thanks,

Tao
