Hi David
What is a cortina,cs4223-slice,
It is 1/4 of:
https://www.inphi.com/products/cs4223.php
and why does it need to be handled differently?
$ ls drivers/net/phy/*cortina*
ls: cannot access drivers/net/phy/*cortina*: No such file or directory
For this configuration of thunder_bgx.c, the use of a Linux PHY driver
is optional.
The firmware should probably not specify a PHY here, but it does so we
ignore it so we don't wait around forever for the non-existent driver to
bind.
