[PATCH v2] dt-bindings: net: ti,davinci-emac: Convert to DT schema

[PATCH v2] dt-bindings: net: ti,davinci-emac: Convert to DT schema

[Bhargav Joshi]

Convert Texas Instruments DaVinci EMAC binding from text to DT schema.

Changes from the original binding:
- Add clocks, clock-names, syscon, power-domains, and ti,hwmods
  properties that are used in existing DTS files but were undocumented.
- Disallow syscon and clock-names for ti,davinci-dm6467-emac since they
  are not applicable to that SoC.
- Allow 1-2 reg entries (DM816 uses two).
- Make clocks a required property as driver probe fails without it.
- Mark ti,hwmods as deprecated.

Changes in v2:
- Remove original text binding that was left in v1
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260817-ti-davinci-emac-v1-1-022678d966e9@gmail.com

-* Texas Instruments Davinci EMAC
-
-This file provides information, what the device node
-for the davinci_emac interface contains.
-
-Required properties:
-- compatible: "ti,davinci-dm6467-emac", "ti,am3517-emac" or
-  "ti,dm816-emac"
-- reg: Offset and length of the register set for the device
-- ti,davinci-ctrl-reg-offset: offset to control register
-- ti,davinci-ctrl-mod-reg-offset: offset to control module register
-- ti,davinci-ctrl-ram-offset: offset to control module ram
-- ti,davinci-ctrl-ram-size: size of control module ram
-- interrupts: interrupt mapping for the davinci emac interrupts sources:
-              4 sources: <Receive Threshold Interrupt
-			  Receive Interrupt
-			  Transmit Interrupt
-			  Miscellaneous Interrupt>
-
-Optional properties:
-- phy-handle: See ethernet.txt file in the same directory.
-              If absent, davinci_emac driver defaults to 100/FULL.
-- ti,davinci-rmii-en: 1 byte, 1 means use RMII
-- ti,davinci-no-bd-ram: boolean, does EMAC have BD RAM?
-
-The MAC address will be determined using the optional properties
-defined in ethernet.txt.
-
-Example (enbw_cmc board):
-	eth0: emac@1e20000 {
-		compatible = "ti,davinci-dm6467-emac";
-		reg = <0x220000 0x4000>;
-		ti,davinci-ctrl-reg-offset = <0x3000>;
-		ti,davinci-ctrl-mod-reg-offset = <0x2000>;
-		ti,davinci-ctrl-ram-offset = <0>;
-		ti,davinci-ctrl-ram-size = <0x2000>;
-		local-mac-address = [ 00 00 00 00 00 00 ];
-		interrupts = <33
-				34
-				35
-				36
-				>;
-		interrupt-parent = <&intc>;
-	};

## Form letter - net-next-closed

We have already submitted our pull request with net-next material for v7.3,
and therefore net-next is closed for new drivers, features, code refactoring
and optimizations. We are currently accepting bug fixes only.

Please repost when net-next reopens after Aug 31st.

RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time.

See: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/next/process/maintainer-netdev.html#development-cycle
