[PATCH] Linux >=2.6.24 support for FEC on MPC5200 (not B!)

Here is a patch for the lite5200 to get the FEC working again for kernel 
 >=2.6.25.

The FEC driver is also compatible with the MPC5200, not only with the 
MPC5200B, so an according entry was added to the drivers matching list.
Furthermore the settings for the PHY were entered in the dts file for 
the Lite5200. Note, that this is not exactly the same as in the 
Lite5200B, because the PHY is located at f0003000:01 for the 5200, and 
at :00 for the 5200B. I could test the patch on a Lite5200 and a 
Lite5200B, both booted a kernel via tftp and mounted the root via nfs 
successfully.
I hope, you can include the patch into the official tree.
