Subject: [PATCH 0/3] resolve module name conflict for asix PHY and USB modules
Date: Sat, 18 May 2019 08:25:15 +1200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1558124718-19209-1-git-send-email-schmitzmic@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190514105649.512267cd@canb.auug.org.au>
Haven't heard back in a while, so here goes:
Commit 31dd83b96641 ("net-next: phy: new Asix Electronics PHY driver")
introduced a new PHY driver drivers/net/phy/asix.c that causes a module
name conflict with a pre-existiting driver (drivers/net/usb/asix.c).
The PHY driver is used by the X-Surf 100 ethernet card driver, and loaded
by that driver via its PHY ID. A rename of the driver looks unproblematic.
Rename PHY driver to ax88796b.c in order to resolve name conflict.
Fixes: 31dd83b96641 ("net-next: phy: new Asix Electronics PHY driver")
