Re: [PATCH v6 2/9] phy: phy-can-transceiver: Introduce can_transceiver_priv

[Vincent Mailhol <mailhol@kernel.org>]

A couple nitpicks. I was hesitating to send this, but because it seems there
will be a v7 anyway, could be worth to integrate these as well.

Considering the number on time you are accessing priv->can_transceiver_phy, I
think it is better to keep this local variable.

With this, the patch diff is also smaller.

                                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  sizeof(*priv)

After adding back the can_transceiver_phy variable:

  sizeof(*can_transceiver_phy)
