It's now possible to have the DW XPCS device defined as a standard platform device for instance in the platform DT-file. Although that functionality is useless unless there is a way to have the device found by the client drivers (STMMAC/DW *MAC, NXP SJA1105 Eth Switch, etc). Provide such ability by means of the xpcs_create_fwnode() method. It needs to be called with the device DW XPCS fwnode instance passed. That node will be then used to find the MDIO-device instance in order to create the DW XPCS descriptor. Note the method semantics and name is similar to what has been recently introduced in the Lynx PCS driver. Signed-off-by: Serge Semin <fancer.lancer@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
