For a long time, PCSs have been tightly coupled with their MACs. For
this reason, the MAC creates the "phy" or mdio device, and then passes
it to the PCS to initialize. This has a few disadvantages:

- Each MAC must re-implement the same steps to look up/create a PCS
- The PCS cannot use functions tied to device lifetime, such as devm_*.
- Generally, the PCS does not have easy access to its device tree node

I'm not sure if these are terribly large disadvantages. In fact, I'm not
sure if this series provides any benefit which could not be achieved
with judicious use of helper functions. In any case, here it is.

NB: Several (later) patches in this series should not be applied. See
the notes in each commit for details on when they can be applied.


Sean Anderson (9):

  net: pcs: lynx: Remove lynx_get_mdio_device and lynx_pcs_destroy
  arm64: dts: Add compatible strings for Lynx PCSs
  powerpc: dts: Add compatible strings for Lynx PCSs
  net: pcs: lynx: Remove remaining users of lynx_pcs_create
