Subject: stmmac: add a warning when aliases are not present in device tree
Date: Mon, 23 Nov 2015 16:46:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151123154648.GA16978@amd> (raw)
If aliases are not present in device tree, stmmac_platform.c will
happily assign bus_id of 0 to all the ethernet interfaces, resulting
in hard to debug problems.
At least warn the user about the problem.
