Hi Steve

Cool to see another interface being made DSA capable.

Please consider using readx_poll_timeout()

Could you explain this shared bus a bit more.  If there is only one
physical MDIO bus, you should only register one bus with Linux. So i
would not normally expect to see ixgbe_is_shared_mii() sort of
statements into the read/write functions. That tends to happen at the
point you are registering the MDIO bus, and when looking for the MACs
PHY on the bus.
