The Microchip LAN78XX family of devices are Ethernet controllers with
a USB interface. Despite being discoverable devices it can be useful to
be able to configure them from Device Tree, particularly in low-cost
applications without an EEPROM or programmed OTP.
Document the supported properties in a bindings file, adding it to
MAINTAINERS at the same time.

+Microchip LAN78xx Gigabit Ethernet controller
+
+The LAN78XX devices are usually configured by programming their OTP or with
+an external EEPROM, but some platforms (e.g. Raspberry Pi 3 B+) have neither.
+
+Please refer to ethernet.txt for a description of common Ethernet bindings.
+
+Optional properties:
+- microchip,eee-enabled: if present, enable Energy Efficient Ethernet support;
+- microchip,led-modes: a two-element vector, with each element configuring
+ the operating mode of an LED. The values supported by the device are;
+ 0: Link/Activity
+ 1: Link1000/Activity
+ 2: Link100/Activity
+ 3: Link10/Activity
+ 4: Link100/1000/Activity
+ 5: Link10/1000/Activity
+ 6: Link10/100/Activity
+ 7: RESERVED
+ 8: Duplex/Collision
+ 9: Collision
+ 10: Activity
+ 11: RESERVED
+ 12: Auto-negotiation Fault
+ 13: RESERVED
+ 14: Off
+ 15: On
+- microchip,tx-lpi-timer: the delay (in microseconds) between the TX fifo
+ becoming empty and invoking Low Power Idles (default 600).
+
+Example:
+
+ /* Standard configuration for a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ */
+ ethernet: usbether@1 {
+ compatible = "usb424,7800";
+ reg = <1>;
+ microchip,eee-enabled;
+ microchip,tx-lpi-timer = <600>;
+ /*
+ * led0 = 1:link1000/activity
+ * led1 = 6:link10/100/activity
+ */
+ microchip,led-modes = <1 6>;
+ };
