Hi,

The A523 has two Ethernet controllers. So in the system controller address space, there are two registers for Ethernet clock delays, one for each controller.
Add a new entry for the A523 system controller that allows access to the second register.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
YES – this should go to stable; without it the second GMAC on A523 cannot program its clock-delay register.
It's pointless, any kernel before v6.15 will not boot on any A523 device, so support for any kind of A523 MAC is irrelevant. For newer kernels, this would be tied to the GMAC1 enablement, which is also a new feature, so not a candidate for stable.
Dropped, thanks!
