For the patch title, "net/axgbe: " already says the change is in the 'axgbe'
driver, no need to duplicate " ..  support for axgbe".

The coding convention [1] we have says return type will be on seperate line, as
already done in some of these functions. Since this is new code, better to start
good, can you please apply the coding convention to all fucntions, like:

 static inline uint64_t
 div_u64(uint64_t dividend, uint32_t divisor)

(I definitly suggest reading it if you didn't already)

This change seems unrelated with the rest of the patch, and I far as I remember
this was in the another patch too. What do you think making this seperate patch
with the proper description it deserves?
