The AXI Bus Mode Register controls the AXI master behavior. It is mainly
used to control the burst splitting and the number of outstanding requests.
This register is present and valid only in GMAC-AXI configuration. The old
driver only supports this feature on PCI devices. This patch adds an
'snps,apl' properties in DT to enable it on platform devices.

This is not a good name (though I see it follows "snps,pbl", which is
also not a good name)...

Why does this need to be in the DT? Is this required for correctness? Or
performance?

Thanks,
Mark.

Any idea for a better name?

This is required for correctness. Otherwise, the driver would write
'0' to the register by default, which makes the driver not work.

Cheers,
