Subject: [PATCH] igb: skip phy status check where unavailable
Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2022 16:55:54 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220429235554.13290-1-kevmitch@arista.com> (raw)

igb_read_phy_reg() will silently return, leaving phy_data untouched, if
hw->ops.read_reg isn't set. Depending on the uninitialized value of
phy_data, this led to the phy status check either succeeding immediately
or looping continuously for 2 seconds before emitting a noisy err-level
timeout. This message went out to the console even though there was no
actual problem.

Instead, first check if there is read_reg function pointer. If not,
proceed without trying to check the phy status register.

Fixes: b72f3f72005d ("igb: When GbE link up, wait for Remote receiver status condition")
