The NanoPi R28S is a 45x45 mm router board from FriendlyElec with the
Rockchip RK3528A SoC. It has the following features:
- 1GB LPDDR4
- MicroSD card slot
- eMMC module socket
- 1x 1GbE RTL8211F Ethernet on gmac1
- 1x 1GbE RTL8111H Ethernet on the PCIe Gen2 x1 controller
- AICSemi AIC8800D80 Wi-Fi 6 / Bluetooth module on sdio0
- HYM8563 RTC with battery connector
- 1x USB 2.0 Type-C, 5V input and maskrom port
- 1x USB Type-C debug console, uart0 behind a USB-UART bridge
- 2 buttons (User, Maskrom)
- 3 LEDs (SYS, LAN, WAN)
The PHY reset is described on the MAC with snps,reset-gpio rather than in
the PHY node. This board leaves the PHY in reset unless the bootloader
released it, and of_mdio.c reads the PHY ID with get_phy_device() before
phy_device_register() picks up a PHY node's reset-gpios, so described that
way the PHY is reported missing and the port never comes up. As
mii_bus->reset, stmmac runs it before the bus is scanned and defers the
probe until the GPIO controller is available.

Tested on the board, booting Armbian images built from this device tree
on 7.2.4 and on v7.3-rc2. Both Ethernet ports carry link: stmmac finds
the RTL8211F on mdio1, and the RTL8111H enumerates behind the PCIe root
port. adc-keys and the HYM8563 RTC probe, and the system runs off the SD
card, iozone included.
An earlier build on v7.3-rc1 wedged the SD host - dw_mmc timing out on a
bare SDMMC_CMD_UPD_CLK, the card then rescanned in a loop, boots taking
minutes or hanging before the rootfs appeared. Neither v7.2.4 nor
v7.3-rc2 does that with the same device tree file, so it did not come
from here.
dwc3 is the one node not exercised beyond probing - the board's only USB
port is the Type-C jack that takes the 5V input and doubles as the
maskrom port, so there is nothing for it to talk to.

There's already an attempt in the works to upstream NanoPi R28S support:
