Mugunthan V N 1d147ccbfc drivers: net: cpsw: Add support to drive gpios for ethernet to be functional
In DRA72x EVM, by default slave 1 is connected to the onboard
phy, but slave 2 pins are also muxed with video input module
which is controlled by pcf857x gpio and currently to select slave
0 to connect to phy gpio hogging is used, but with
omap2plus_defconfig the pcf857x gpio is built as module. So when
using NFS on DRA72x EVM, board doesn't boot as gpio hogging do
not set proper gpio state to connect slave 0 to phy as it is
built as module and you do not see any errors for not setting
gpio and just mentions dhcp reply not got.

To solve this issue, introducing "mode-gpios" in DT when gpio
based muxing is required. This will throw a warning when gpio
get fails and returns probe defer. When gpio-pcf857x module is
installed, cpsw probes again and ethernet becomes functional.
Verified this on DRA72x with pcf as module and ramdisk.
