This code is getting the first clock from the DT description of the PHY. We don't know what type of PHY it is, or what the DT description of that PHY might suggest that the first clock would be. However, we're geting it and setting it to 50MHz. What if the clock is not what we think it is? I'm not sure we should be delving in to some other device's DT properties to then get resources that it _uses_ to then effectively take control those resources. I think we need way more detail on what's going on. Commit da114122b83 merely stated: For external phy, clk_phy should be optional, and some external phy need the clock input from clk_phy. This patch adds support for setting clk_phy for external phy. If the external PHY requires a clock supplied to it, shouldn't the PHY driver itself be getting that clock and setting it appropriately? -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up.
