Do you suggest that currently we put the content of gsw1xx_core.c and
gsw1xx_mdio.c into one file and split them later at the time when
another management mode (e,g: spi) is added?
Actually I kinda hope this piece of code (gsw1xx_core.c) can be reused
in lantiq_gswip in short future.
I tried to use the logic in lantiq_gswip directly on the gsw145 chip.
Unfortunately it did not work. It seems that the GSWIP part changes a lot.
