Subject: [PATCH] net: phy: allow scanning busses with missing phys
Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2018 18:09:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180424160904.32457-1-alexandre.belloni@bootlin.com> (raw)

Some MDIO busses will error out when trying to read a phy address with no
phy present at that address. In that case, probing the bus will fail
because __mdiobus_register() is scanning the bus for all possible phys
addresses.

In case MII_PHYSID1 returns -EIO or -ENODEV, consider there is no phy at
this address and set the phy ID to 0xffffffff which is then properly
handled in get_phy_device().
