net/vsc9953: Add driver for Vitesse VSC9953 L2 Switch IP
This patch adds a driver for VSC9953 L2 Switch. This Vitesse IP is integrated in Freescale T1040 and T1020 SoCs. The L2 switch has 10 Ethernet ports: 2 internal fixed-links (ports 8 and 9) at 2.5 Gbps and and 8 external ports at 1 Gbps. The external ports may be connected to PHYs over QSGMII and SGMII. Commands have also been added to enable/disable a port and to check a port's link speed, duplexity and status. The commands are: ethsw port <port_nr> enable|disable - enable/disable an l2 switch port ethsw port <port_nr> show - show an l2 switch port's configuration port_nr=0..9; use "all" for all ports For more detailse please see doc/README.t1040-l2switch Signed-off-by: Codrin Ciubotariu <codrin.ciubotariu@freescale.com> Acked-by: Joe Hershberger <joe.hershberger@ni.com> Reviewed-by: York Sun <yorksun@freescale.com>

+This file contains information for VSC9953, a Vitesse L2 Switch IP
+which is integrated in the T1040/T1020 Freescale SoCs.
+
+About Device:
+=============
+VSC9953 is an 8-port Gigabit Ethernet switch supports the following features:
+ - 8192 MAC addresses
+ - Static Address provisioning
+ - Dynamic learning of MAC addresses and aging
+ - 4096 VLANs
+ - Independent and shared VLAN learning (IVL, SVL)
+ - Policing with storm control and MC/BC protection
+ - IPv4 and IPv6 multicast
+ - Jumbo frames (9.6 KB)
+ - Access Control List
+ - VLAN editing, translation and remarking
+ - RMON counters per port
+
+Switch interfaces:
+ - 8 Gigabit switch ports (ports 0 to 7) are external and are connected to external PHYs
+ - 2 switch ports (ports 8 and 9) of 2.5 G are connected (fixed links)
+ to FMan ports (FM1@DTSEC1 and FM1@DTSEC2)
+
+Commands Overview:
+=============
+Commands supported
+ - enable/disable a port
+ - check a port's link speed, duplexity and status.
+
+Commands syntax
+ ethsw port <port_nr> enable|disable - enable/disable an l2 switch port
+ ethsw port <port_nr> show - show an l2 switch port's configuration
+
+ port_nr=0..9; use "all" for all ports
