FWIW, we found that the bootloader has to write to PSC1, the driver
doesn't work with the power on/reset value of the register. So I think
it is safe to assume that all kirkwood bootloaders alter the value.

Our systems write the value 0x00638488 to PSC1.

I looked at patching mv643xx_eth, but ran into the same complexity you
did, it isn't clear what variants of this IP block have the
register/etc.

of_machine_is_compatible seems heavy handed, I would expect this to be
based on the compatible string of the ethernet node itself, not the
machine??
