Not really, given that phylink_attach_phy() will refuse to attach a PHY when: if (WARN_ON(pl->cfg_link_an_mode == MLO_AN_FIXED || (pl->cfg_link_an_mode == MLO_AN_INBAND && phy_interface_mode_is_8023z(interface) && !pl->sfp_bus))) return -EINVAL; So, if we introduce a helper named "phylink_expects_phy" that returns true when cfg_link_an_mode == MLO_AN_INBAND and the interface mode is e.g. 1000base-X, but then someone tries to attach a PHY, the kernel spits out a warning, backtrace, and a return value of -EINVAL, things are going to look really rather stupid. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up.
