From 03f91068d10bb74c2d292b2245fdf41c987eefdf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonas Gorski Date: Tue, 11 Oct 2011 23:05:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ar71xx: add a workaround for ar8316 not always driving the TA bit to low AR8316 behind a GPIO bitbanged MDIO bus fails to drive the turnaround bit to low despite returning a valid value. Ignore it and just use the returned value anyway.
