Subject: [PATCH 7/9] net: phy: fixed_phy: transition to the faux device interface
Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2025 10:13:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250317-plat2faux_dev-v1-7-5fe67c085ad5@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250317-plat2faux_dev-v1-0-5fe67c085ad5@arm.com>

The net fixed phy driver does not require the creation of a platform
device. Originally, this approach was chosen for simplicity when the
driver was first implemented.

With the introduction of the lightweight faux device interface, we now
have a more appropriate alternative. Migrate the driver to utilize the
faux bus, given that the platform device it previously created was not
a real one anyway. This will simplify the code, reducing its footprint
while maintaining functionality.
