Subject: [PATCH] net: of_mdio: fix behavior on missing phy device
Date: Tue,  7 May 2013 11:49:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1367920171-20264-1-git-send-email-sebastian.hesselbarth@gmail.com> (raw)

of_mdiobus_register creates a phy_device even if get_phy_device failed
to create it previously. This causes indefinite polling on non-existent
PHYs. This fix makes of_mdio_register rely on get_phy_device to
properly create the device or fail otherwise.
