Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: stmmac: avoid passing pci_dev
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2026 12:13:52 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1w0evI-0000000CzY7-1fyo@rmk-PC.armlinux.org.uk> (raw)
The pci_dev is only used to provide the ethtool bus_info using
pci_name(priv->plat->pdev). This is the same as dev_name(priv->device).
Thus, rather than passing the pci_dev, make use of what we already
have.
To avoid unexpectedly exposing the device name through ethtool where
it wasn't provided before, add a flag priv->plat->provide_bus_info
to enable this, which only dwmac-intel needs to set.
