[U-Boot] DM ethernet driver with multiple interfaces per device

[Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>]

Hi!

I'm currently porting the Marvell mvpp2 driver for the Armada 375
to U-Boot. This controller is a bit different, as it exposes 
multiple interfaces per controller. In this specific case its
2 interfaces. Here the current dts node:

	/* Network controller */
	ethernet at f0000 {
		compatible = "marvell,armada-375-pp2";
		reg = <0xf0000 0xa000>, /* Packet Processor regs */
		      <0xc0000 0x3060>, /* LMS regs */
		      <0xc4000 0x100>,  /* eth0 regs */
		      <0xc5000 0x100>;  /* eth1 regs */
		clocks = <&gateclk 3>, <&gateclk 19>;
		clock-names = "pp_clk", "gop_clk";
		status = "disabled";

		eth0: eth0 at c4000 {
			interrupts = <GIC_SPI 37 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
			port-id = <0>;
			status = "disabled";
		};

		eth1: eth1 at c5000 {
			interrupts = <GIC_SPI 41 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
			port-id = <1>;
			status = "disabled";
		};
	};

Now I'm unsure, how to support those multiple network interfaces
with DM. As the driver will only get called once. And I can't
instantiate 2 network interfaces from the one probe function
call.

I could work around this problem, by restructuring the DT node
into 2 separate DT nodes, each referencing the shared resources.
But this would be a ugly, since it results in a different DT
source between Linux and U-Boot.

So my question is, is this something that is supported by the
current DM networking infrastructure? And if not, if you have
some hints on how to best support such a constellation with
multiple network interfaces via one ethernet controller.

Thanks,
Stefan
