Hi,

The following patches apply to the FEC driver (drivers/net/fec.c). While
found on several Freescale/Motorola chips, this driver is currently only
used for Coldfire. These patches add support for the ARM based i.MX27
SoC.

I'm almost sure I break the driver for some (all?) Coldfire guys, but I
do not have any Coldfire based board to test the patches on.

The first 4 patches should be ok as is, comments?
The other patches are somewhat work in progress, but they show which
changes I need for my hardware.

The driver could use quite some cleanup patches for coding style, turn
it into a platform device driver and add exit functions. I'm sure I
could find some time to work on these topics, but first I need the
patches to support my board to be able to test my changes.

Any comments welcome

Sascha

PS Greg, Sebastian: I'm sending this again because I got the list
address wrong. I put you on cc because you were the last persons
committing patches to this driver
