Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: usb: replace unnecessary get_link functions with usbnet_get_link
Date: Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:22:06 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260124082217.82351-1-enelsonmoore@gmail.com> (raw)
usbnet_get_link calls mii_link_ok if the device has a MII defined in
its usbnet struct and no check_connect function defined there. This is
true of these drivers, so their custom get_link functions which call
mii_link_ok are useless. Remove them in favor of usbnet_get_link.
