[PATCH net-next 0/3] use more devm

[PATCH net-next 0/3] use more devm

[Rosen Penev]

Some of these were introduced after the driver got introduced. In any
case, using more devm allows removal of the remove function and overall
simplifies the code. All of these were tested on a TP-LINK Archer C7v2.

  net: ag71xx: use devm for of_mdiobus_register

I forgot to remove the following section. Will do this in v2. I'll
send tomorrow as rules seem to be no new patches for 24 hours.

[PATCH net-next 2/3] net: ag71xx: use devm for of_mdiobus_register

[Rosen Penev]

Allows removing ag71xx_mdio_remove.

Removed local mii_bus variable and assign struct members directly.
Easier to reason about.

This mixes up two different things, making the patch harder to
review. Ideally you want lots of little patches, each doing one thing,
and being obviously correct. 

Is ag->mii_bus actually used anywhere, outside of ag71xx_mdio_probe()?
Often swapping to devm_ means the driver does not need to keep hold of
the resources. So i actually think you can remove ag->mii_bus. This
might of been more obvious if you had first swapped to
devm_of_mdiobus_register() without the other changes mixed in.

not sure I follow. mdiobus_unregister would need to be called in
remove without devm. That would need a private mii_bus of some kind.
So with devm this is unneeded?

If you use devm_of_mdiobus_register(), the device core will call
devm_mdiobus_unregister() on remove. Your patch removed
mdiobus_unregister() in remove....

Is there any user of ag->mii_bus left after converting to
devm_of_mdiobus_register()?

There is not. I've applied the change removing mii_bus from ag locally.

From testing, nothing has blown up. Although there's still a problem
with switched ports (except for lan1) dying after a while. I think
that bug's in qca8k though.

calling restart results in no surprises, unlike with some of my other
questionable patches.
