Micrel KSZ9021/KSZ9031 Gigabit Ethernet PHY
Some boards require special tuning values, particularly when it comes to
clock delays. You can specify clock delay values by adding
micrel-specific properties to an Ethernet OF device node.
Note that these settings are applied after any phy-specific fixup from
phy_fixup_list (see phy_init_hw() from drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c),
and therefore may overwrite them.
KSZ9021:
All skew control options are specified in picoseconds. The minimum
value is 0, the maximum value is 1800, and it is incremented by 120ps
steps.
The KSZ9021 hardware supports a range of skew values from negative to
positive, where the specific range is property dependent. All values
specified in the devicetree are offset by the minimum value so they
can be represented as positive integers in the devicetree since it's
difficult to represent a negative number in the devictree.
The following 4-bit values table applies to all the skew properties:

KSZ9031:
All skew control options are specified in picoseconds. The minimum
value is 0, and the maximum is property-dependent. The increment
step is 60ps.
The KSZ9031 hardware supports a range of skew values from negative to
positive, where the specific range is property dependent. All values
specified in the devicetree are offset by the minimum value so they
can be represented as positive integers in the devicetree since it's
difficult to represent a negative number in the devictree.
The following 5-bit values table apply to rxc-skew-ps and txc-skew-ps.

Notes:
Note that a previous version of the Micrel ksz9021rl/rn Data Sheet
was missing extended register 106 (transmit data pad skews), and
incorrectly specified the ps per step as 200ps/step instead of
120ps/step. The latest update to this document reflects the latest
revision of the Micrel specification even though usage in the kernel
still reflects that incorrect document.
