Subject: 4.5.0 on sun7i-a20-olinuxino-lime2: libphy: PHY stmmac-0:ffffffff not

Hi,

Hopefully this is the correct place and way to report this.

For the board sun7i-a20-olinuxino-lime2, there seems to be a problem 
with the eth0 PHY in mainline kernel 4.5.0 that developed since 
4.5.0-rc7. Ethernet does not work, although eth0 is reported:

root at lime2-079f:~# ip a l eth0
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group 
default qlen 1000
     link/ether 02:c9:05:02:07:9f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

  Difference reported in dmesg:

4.5.0-rc7:

4.5.0:

[   10.357405] libphy: PHY stmmac-0:ffffffff not found
[   10.362382] eth0: Could not attach to PHY
[   10.366557] stmmac_open: Cannot attach to PHY (error: -19)

.config is identical for both, also after make oldconfig, apart from 
comment with version number. DTB file is also identical between the two 
versions.

Kernels are compiled on the board itself. /proc/version string:
Linux version 4.5.0-rc7 (root at lime2-079f) (gcc version 4.9.1 
(Ubuntu/Linaro 4.9.1-16ubuntu6) ) #1 SMP Mon Mar 7 11:57:25 UTC 2016
Linux version 4.5.0 (root at lime2-079f) (gcc version 4.9.1 (Ubuntu/Linaro 
4.9.1-16ubuntu6) ) #1 SMP Tue Mar 15 11:39:01 UTC 2016

Please let me know if more info is needed, if I should post complete 
.config, test compile with a particular config or patch, etc. Part of 
.config below.

Best,
