====================
Follow-up to RGMII mode clarification: am65-cpsw fix + checkpatch
Following previous discussion [1] and the documentation update by
Andrew [2]:
Fix up the mode to account for the fixed TX delay on the AM65 CPSW
Ethernet controllers, similar to the way the icssg-prueth does it. For
backwards compatibility, the "impossible" modes that claim to have a
delay on the PCB are still accepted, but trigger a warning message.
As Andrew suggested, I have also added a checkpatch check that requires
a comment for any RGMII mode that is not "rgmii-id".
No Device Trees are updated to avoid the warning for now, to give other
projects syncing the Linux Device Trees some time to fix their drivers
as well. I intend to submit an equivalent change for U-Boot's
am65-cpsw-nuss driver as soon as the changes are accepted for Linux.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
