You did not mention in the cover letter, or the patch. I asked for a
detailed explanation in the commit message why it is correct, which
you did not do.

Now we have more details, it is clear Ethernet support for this board
needs to wait until we figure out how to fix the MAC driver. Please
either wait with this patchset until that is done, or drop this one
patch for the moment and submit it later once the MAC driver is fixed.
