What do you think? This sounds like a good idea, but I have problems to implement. How I would like the logic to be: - in dev.nut "PHY_MODE_MII" should not be provided and not be defined for all archs beside AT91. - for any arch, if "PHY_MODE_MII" is defined in the .conf file, PHY_MODE_MII should be provided and be defined for all archs beside AT91. - "PHY_MODE_MII" should be provided and defined with AT91 when PHY_MODE_RMII" is not given in the conf file. - For AT91, with "PHY_MODE_RMII" defined in the .conf file, "PHY_MODE_MII" should not be provided and not be defined.
