The description says the 14 MHz limit applies only to w5100 while 80 MHz
applies to w5200/w5500, but the single maximum: 80000000 is applied to all
three compatibles. Should the w5100 limit be expressed as a conditional so
dt_binding_check can enforce it?
The user should know which SPI speed to use here. I don't think
leaving the scheme open to higher speeds is a real issue.
[Severity: Low]
This changes the recommended trigger type from IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING in the
removed .txt binding to IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW, and the deleted text also
claimed "w5x00 natively generates falling edge interrupts". Could the
commit message mention this correction?
The new value agrees with the driver, which requests the device interrupt
level-low in w5100_probe():
err = request_threaded_irq(priv->irq, NULL, w5100_interrupt,
IRQF_TRIGGER_LOW | IRQF_ONESHOT,
netdev_name(ndev), ndev);
The commit message body only says the binding is converted from plain text
to DT schema. The only record of the trigger change is the v8 changelog
line "Change edge-falling to level-low" below the --- separator, which git
does not keep.
Nitpicky but I can add a line in the commit body.
