David Daney 736b1c9c95 MIPS: Octeon: Add device tree source files.
The two device tree files octeon_3xxx.dts and octeon_68xx.dts are
trimmed by code in a subsequent patch to reflect the hardware actually
present on the board.  To this end several properties that are not
part of the declared bindings are added to aid in trimming off
unwanted nodes.  Since the device tree and the code that trims it are
bound into the kernel binary, these 'marker' properties never escape
into the wild, and are purely an implementation detail of the kernel
early boot process.  This is done for backwards compatibility with
existing boards (identified by a board type enumeration value by their
bootloaders).  New boards will always pass a device tree from the
bootloader, the built-in trees are ignored in this case.

* PIP Ethernet nexus.
The PIP Ethernet nexus can control several data packet input/output
devices. The devices have a two level grouping scheme. There may be
several interfaces, and each interface may have several ports. These
ports might be an individual Ethernet PHY.
Properties for the PIP nexus:
- compatible: "cavium,octeon-3860-pip"
Compatibility with all cn3XXX, cn5XXX and cn6XXX SOCs.
- reg: The base address of the PIP's register bank.
- #address-cells: Must be <1>.
- #size-cells: Must be <0>.
Properties for PIP interfaces which is a child the PIP nexus:
- compatible: "cavium,octeon-3860-pip-interface"
Compatibility with all cn3XXX, cn5XXX and cn6XXX SOCs.
- reg: The interface number.
- #address-cells: Must be <1>.
- #size-cells: Must be <0>.
Properties for PIP port which is a child the PIP interface:
- compatible: "cavium,octeon-3860-pip-port"
Compatibility with all cn3XXX, cn5XXX and cn6XXX SOCs.
- reg: The port number within the interface group.
- mac-address: Optional, the MAC address to assign to the device.
- local-mac-address: Optional, the MAC address to assign to the device
if mac-address is not specified.
- phy-handle: Optional, a phandle for the PHY device connected to this device.
Example:
pip@11800a0000000 {
compatible = "cavium,octeon-3860-pip";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
reg = <0x11800 0xa0000000 0x0 0x2000>;
interface@0 {
compatible = "cavium,octeon-3860-pip-interface";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
reg = <0>; /* interface */
ethernet@0 {

reg = <0x0>; /* Port */
