[PATCH] net: fec: properly guard irq coalesce setup

[PATCH] net: fec: properly guard irq coalesce setup

[Rasmus Villemoes]

Prior to the Fixes: commit, the initialization code went through the
same fec_enet_set_coalesce() function as used by ethtool, and that
function correctly checks whether the current variant has support for
irq coalescing.

Now that the initialization code instead calls fec_enet_itr_coal_set()
directly, that call needs to be guarded by a check for the
FEC_QUIRK_HAS_COALESCE bit.

Fixes: df727d4547de (net: fec: don't reset irq coalesce settings to defaults on "ip link up")

There is already a guard in fec_enet_set_coalesce() so this makes sense, 
thanks!

I'm wondering if this check should be added to fec_enet_itr_coal_set() 
instead. Right now any additional caller has to do it's own check for 
FEC_QUIRK_HAS_COALESCE, so why not do check in fec_enet_itr_coal_set?
But I'm okay with this change as well.

Best regards,
Alexander

Yeah, I did consider that (see
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/72eb4e63-10a8-702b-1113-7588fcade9fc@rasmusvillemoes.dk/).
But in the end I decided against it, for various small reasons.
Primarily my thinking was that while this caller is obviously ok with
fec_enet_itr_coal_set() just silently being a no-op, it's not clear that
some future caller wouldn't have to check the bit themselves and return
-EOPNOTSUPP or some other error just like the ethtool method does. Of
course we could also make fec_enet_itr_coal_set() not return void, but
then it's a whole different refactoring and definitely not for post-rc8.

But also, the above was what I had sent out as a "something like this?"
and tested on my own hardware before heading home, and due to the
imminent release, I wanted to send out the patch ASAP.
