+Marvell Orion/Discovery ethernet controller
+=============================================
+
+The Marvell Discovery ethernet controller can be found on Marvell Orion SoCs
+(Kirkwood, Dove, Orion5x, and Discovery Innovation) and as part of Marvell
+Discovery system controller chips (mv64[345]60).
+
+The Discovery ethernet controller is described with two levels of nodes. The
+first level describes the ethernet controller itself and the second level
+describes up to 3 ethernet port nodes within that controller. The reason for
+the multiple levels is that the port registers are interleaved within a single
+set of controller registers. Each port node describes port-specific properties.
+
+Note: The above separation is only true for Discovery system controllers.
+For Orion SoCs we stick to the separation, although there each controller has
+only one port associated. Multiple ports are implemented as multiple single-port
+controllers. As Kirkwood has some issues with proper initialization after reset,
+an extra compatible string is added for it.
+
+* Ethernet controller node
+
+Required controller properties:
+ - #address-cells: shall be 1.
+ - #size-cells: shall be 0.
+ - compatible: shall be one of "marvell,orion-eth", "marvell,kirkwood-eth".
+ - reg: address and length of the controller registers.
+
+Optional controller properties:
+ - clocks: phandle reference to the controller clock.
+ - marvell,tx-checksum-limit: max tx packet size for hardware checksum.
+
+* Ethernet port node
+
+Required port properties:
+ - compatible: shall be one of "marvell,orion-eth-port",
+ "marvell,kirkwood-eth-port".
+ - reg: port number relative to ethernet controller, shall be 0, 1, or 2.
+ - interrupts: port interrupt.
+ - local-mac-address: See ethernet.txt file in the same directory.
+
+Optional port properties:
+ - marvell,tx-queue-size: size of the transmit ring buffer.
+ - marvell,tx-sram-addr: address of transmit descriptor buffer located in SRAM.
+ - marvell,tx-sram-size: size of transmit descriptor buffer located in SRAM.
+ - marvell,rx-queue-size: size of the receive ring buffer.
+ - marvell,rx-sram-addr: address of receive descriptor buffer located in SRAM.
+ - marvell,rx-sram-size: size of receive descriptor buffer located in SRAM.
+
+and
+
+ - phy-handle: See ethernet.txt file in the same directory.
+
+or
+
+ - speed: port speed if no PHY connected.
+ - duplex: port mode if no PHY connected.
+
+* Node example:
+
+mdio-bus {
+ ...
+ ethphy: ethernet-phy@8 {
+ ...
+ };
+};
+
+eth: ethernet-controller@72000 {
+ compatible = "marvell,orion-eth";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+ reg = <0x72000 0x2000>;
+ clocks = <&gate_clk 2>;
+ marvell,tx-checksum-limit = <1600>;
+
+ ethernet@0 {
+ compatible = "marvell,orion-eth-port";
+ reg = <0>;
+ interrupts = <29>;
+ phy-handle = <&ethphy>;
+ local-mac-address = [00 00 00 00 00 00];
+ };
+};
