[U-Boot] Micrel Controller KSZ8841-16MBL

[Douglas Lopes Pereira]

Hi all,

I managed to get KS8841 driver recognized by u-boot. But I'm certain that it
was not in the correct way.

The driver I've found on BlackFin forum was written for a 2008 u-boot
version and we are working on a 1.3.1 (very old) version. So I just modify
some function calls.

The problem is that the KS8841 driver does not have a ks884x_initialize
function. So we created it. All it does is create and fill an eth_device
structure. Register it using eth_register function and them it should
initialize the PHY (that is what I suppose it should do).

Since I am not sure on how to do that, I just called the ks884x_init
function.

It ends in a TRAP message just after the Micrel device being printed at the
console.

Could anyone point me out some directions to get my driver correctly
initialized?

Thanks for your time.

Regards,
Douglas
