The netc-blk-ctrl driver is used to configure Integrated Endpoint
Register Block (IERB) and Privileged Register Block (PRB) of NETC.
For i.MX platforms, it is also used to configure the NETCMIX block.
The IERB contains registers that are used for pre-boot initialization,
debug, and non-customer configuration. The PRB controls global reset
and global error handling for NETC. The NETCMIX block is mainly used
to set MII protocol and PCS protocol of the links, it also contains
settings for some other functions.
Note the IERB configuration registers can only be written after being
unlocked by PRB, otherwise, all write operations are inhibited. A warm
reset is performed when the IERB is unlocked, and it results in an FLR
to all NETC devices. Therefore, all NETC device drivers must be probed
or initialized after the warm reset is finished.
