Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: lantiq_gswip: Add 200ms assert delay

The delay is especially needed by the xRX300 and xRX330 SoCs. Without
this patch, some phys are sometimes not properly detected.

Fixes: a09d042b086202735c4ed64 ("net: dsa: lantiq: allow to use all GPHYs on xRX300 and xRX330")

Generally the convention is:

From: Patch Author <[email protected]>

Commit description

Signed-off-by: Patch Author <[email protected]>
Signed-off-by: Patch Carrier 1 <[email protected]>
Signed-off-by: Patch Carrier 2 <[email protected]>
Signed-off-by: Patch Carrier 3 <[email protected]>
Signed-off-by: Patch Submitter <[email protected]>

This patch is clearly not following this model for more than one reason.

Let's not even talk about the kilometer-long commit sha1sum.
This is not even my pet peeve, if this patch gets merged as-is you'll
get an email titled "linux-next: Fixes tag needs some work in the net tree"
(google it if you want examples).

Stick this in your ~/.gitconfig and thank me later:

[core]
abbrev = 12
[pretty]
fixes = Fixes: %h (\"%s\")

Now run:

git show a09d042b086202735c4ed64 --pretty=fixes
Fixes: a09d042b0862 ("net: dsa: lantiq: allow to use all GPHYs on xRX300 and xRX330")

Voila!
