Hi Mykola,

As Joel's been looking at the series for you I'll defer to his
preferences, but I've made some comments below.

Nitpicking here, but the comment seems misleading as it's only true for
one of the interfaces despite configuring both. The sequence below sets
MAC1 to RMII/NCSI and MAC2 to RGMII.

My reading of the AST2500 datasheet suggests 0x00000A00 is a reserved
value? Given this isn't a read/modify/write sequence I think it
deserves more documentation than just mentioning disabling UART1, i.e.
bits that you're touching that you might not care about. We've had this
lack of information in the past in the board file and it makes life
more difficult when removing the hacks when we eventually have driver
support for the configurations.

Zaius and Lanyang both have more documentation and do
read/modify/write. I think either the Zaius/Lanyang approach should be
used, or the commentary improved.

Cheers,

Andrew
