I am very happy to take participate into this topic, but now I have no expe=
rience to DSA and i.MX28 MAC,
so I may need some time to increase these knowledge, limited insight could =
be put to now.

Florian, Andrew could comment more and I also can learn from it :-), they a=
re all very experienced expert.

We also want to maintain FEC driver since many SoCs implemented this IP, an=
d as I know we would also
use it for future SoCs.
