Subject: [PATCH] phylib: Make PHYs children of their MDIO bus, not the bus' parent.
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2015 16:16:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1440198963-20080-1-git-send-email-ddaney.cavm@gmail.com> (raw)
From: David Daney <david.daney@cavium.com>
commit 18ee49ddb0d2 ("phylib: rename mii_bus::dev to mii_bus::parent")
changed the parent of PHY devices from the bus to the bus parent.
Then, commit 4dea547fef1b ("phylib: rework to prepare for OF
registration of PHYs") moved the code into phy_device.c
At this point, it is somewhat unclear why the change was seen as
necessary. But, when we look at the device model tree in
/sys/devices, it is clearly incorrect. The PHYs should be children of
their MDIO bus.
Change the PHY's parent device to be the MDIO bus device.
