Since ucc_geth is being migrated to use the phylib, the existing
(undocumented) 'interface' property is being deprecated in favour
of 'phy-connection-type'.
phy-connection-type is now maintained one-to-one with definitions
in include/linux/phy.h, albeit in the form of a string.
If not specified, "mii" is assumed.

To allow more robust association of each network device node with an
index (such as is used by the firmware or an EEPROM to indicate MAC
addresses), a network device's node may specify the index explicitly.

This patch updates booting-without-of.txt to describe version 17 of
the flattened device tree format. Version 17 is a small, backwards
compatible change from version 16, adding an extra field giving the
size of the device tree's structure block. At this time, the kernel
has no use for the extra information, however its presence can make
life easier for bootloaders or other software manipulating the tree.
In addition this patch adds information on the size_dt_strings field
of the device tree header, present since version 3 of the flattened
tree format, but omitted from the documentation. It also makes
changes to consistently refer to versions 16 and 17 as versions 16 and
17 in decimal, rather than version 0x10 which was occasionally used
for version 16 previously.
Finally, we also add the new field to the definition of the device
tree header structure in prom.h

Much needed refinement of mpc5200 device tree binding specifications.
Short list:
- drop mpc52xx designator; only two supported chips exist, 5200 and 5200b.
It's premature to refer to them as '52xx'.
- Specify optional 'model' and 'revision' properties in the soc5200 node
- Specify reqiured 'cell-index' property to identify between multiple SOC
devices of the same type. (Useful for arbitrating shared register access)
- Specify optional 'port-number' property for adjusting the logical serial
port assignments.
- Specify optional 'has-wdt' property for gpt0 node.
- Add system-frequency property to soc5200 node

This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the
powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism. With this,
board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a
macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened
device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine.
We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of
_machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants. This commit also
changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at
_machine.

The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that:
- Has never been used by any in-kernel drive;
- Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing;
- Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type;
- Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts;
- Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace.
This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well
as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
