From 25d12e1dde28fafd2ac37afadd24252fa19b80cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Cochran Date: Wed, 25 Dec 2019 18:16:17 -0800 Subject: dt-bindings: ptp: Introduce MII time stamping devices. This patch add a new binding that allows non-PHY MII time stamping devices to find their buses. The new documentation covers both the generic binding and one upcoming user.
