Hi Ryan,

Some minor feedback from my side.

1. of_property_read_bool() seems slightly more appropriate here
2. Please consider arranging local variables in Networking code
   in reverse xmas tree order - longest line to shortest.

   This tool can be helpful for this
   https://github.com/ecree-solarflare/xmastree

	struct device_node *np = bp->pdev->dev.of_node;
	bool refclk_ext;
	u32 dcfg;

	refclk_ext = of_property_read_bool(np, "cdns,refclk-ext");
