SMSC LAN generation 4 chips integrate an IEEE 802.3 ethernet physical layer.
The PHY driver for this integrated chip enable an energy detect power-down mode.
When the PHY is in a power-down mode, it prevents the MAC portion chip to be
software reseted.
That means that if we compile the kernel with the configuration option SMSC_PHY
enabled and try to bring the network interface up without an cable plug-ed the
PHY will be in a low power mode and the software reset will fail returning -EIO
to user-space:
root@igep00x0:~# ifconfig eth0 up
ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Input/output error
This patch disable the energy detect power-down mode before trying to software
reset the LAN chip and re-enables after it was reseted successfully.

Add some basic regulator support for the power pins, as needed
by the ST-Ericsson Snowball platform that powers up the SMSC911
chip using an external regulator.
Platforms that use regulators and the smsc911x and have no defined
regulator for the smsc911x and claim complete regulator
constraints with no dummy regulators will need to provide it, for
example using a fixed voltage regulator. It appears that this may
affect (apart from Ux500 Snowball) possibly these archs/machines
that from some grep:s appear to define both CONFIG_SMSC911X and
CONFIG_REGULATOR:
- ARM Freescale mx3 and OMAP 2 plus, Raumfeld machines
- Blackfin
- Super-H

Wait for the chip to be ready before any access to it. On the
Snowball platform we need to enable an external regulator before
the chip comes online, and then it happens that the device is
not yet ready at probe time, so let's wait for it.

The SMSC911X_USE_16BIT needs to be set when using 16-bit register
access. However, currently no flag is set if the device tree
doesn't specify 32-bit access, resulting in a BUG() and a non-
working driver when 16-bit register access is configured for
smsc911x in the DT.
This patch should set the SMSC911X_USE_16BIT flag in a manner
consistent with the documented DT bindings.

Moves the SMC (SMSC) drivers into drivers/net/ethernet/smsc/ and the
necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes. Also did some cleanup
of NET_VENDOR_SMC Kconfig tag for the 8390 based drivers.
