    net: phy: realtek: add support for configuring the RX delay on RTL8211F · 1b3047b5
    Martin Blumenstingl authored
    On RTL8211F the RX and TX delays (2ns) can be configured in two ways:
    - pin strapping (RXD1 for the TX delay and RXD0 for the RX delay, LOW
      means "off" and HIGH means "on") which is read during PHY reset
    - using software to configure the TX and RX delay registers
    
    So far only the configuration using pin strapping has been supported.
    Add support for enabling or disabling the RGMII RX delay based on the
    phy-mode to be able to get the RX delay into a known state. This is
    important because the RX delay has to be coordinated between the PHY,
    MAC and the PCB design (trace length). With an invalid RX delay applied
    (for example if both PHY and MAC add a 2ns RX delay) Ethernet may not
    work at all.
    
    Also add debug logging when configuring the RX delay (just like the TX
    delay) because this is a common source of problems.
