Subject: [PATCH net] net: macb: Probe MDIO bus before registering netdev
Date: Mon, 2 May 2016 18:38:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1462239525-22723-1-git-send-email-f.fainelli@gmail.com> (raw)
The current sequence makes us register for a network device prior to
registering and probing the MDIO bus which could lead to some unwanted
consequences, like a thread of execution calling into ndo_open before
register_netdev() returns, while the MDIO bus is not ready yet.
Rework the sequence to register for the MDIO bus, and therefore attach
to a PHY prior to calling register_netdev(), which implies reworking the
error path a bit.

Tracking down the exact commit which started doing that was a little
difficult, so I can't really provide a proper Fixes tag yet that does
not reference 4-5 commits
