Hi Maxime,
I'm sorry, but I think you need an extra patch added to this series.
Looking at include/linux/mdio/mdio-regmap.h, that defines:
struct mdio_regmap_config {
struct device *parent;
struct regmap *regmap;
char name[MII_BUS_ID_SIZE];
u8 valid_addr;
bool autoscan;
};
In dwmac-socfpga.c, you have:
struct mdio_regmap_config mrc;
mrc.regmap = pcs_regmap;
mrc.parent = &pdev->dev;
mrc.valid_addr = 0x0;
snprintf(mrc.name, MII_BUS_ID_SIZE, "%s-pcs-mii", ndev->name);
So that's a tick for parent, tick for regmap, tick for name, tick
for valid_addr, but... autoscan is left uninitialised.
devm_mdio_regmap_register() reads this, and uses it to decide
how to set mii->phy_mask, which will be randomly ~0 or ~BIT(0)
depending on the value of mrc.autoscan.
Other than that, the series looks good. Thanks.
