[PATCH v3 phy-next 08/24] PCI: Remove device links to PHY

Vladimir Oltean vladimir.oltean at nxp.com
Mon Mar 9 12:08:26 PDT 2026


This is practically a full revert of commit
7a4db656a635 ("PCI: dra7xx: Create functional dependency between PCIe and PHY")
and a partial revert of the device link pieces from commits
dfb80534692d ("PCI: cadence: Add generic PHY support to host and EP drivers")
49229238ab47 ("PCI: keystone: Cleanup PHY handling")

The trouble with these commits is that they dereference fields inside
struct phy from a consumer driver, which will become no longer possible.

Since commit 987351e1ea77 ("phy: core: Add consumer device link
support") from 2019, the PHY core also adds a device link to order PHY
provider and consumer suspend/resume operations. All reverted commits
are from 2017-2018, and what they do should actually be redundant now.

v2->v3:
- remove dangling set but unused phy_count local variable in
  cdns_plat_pcie_probe()
v1->v2:
- fully remove struct device link **link from struct cdns_pcie and from
  cdns_plat_pcie_probe() error path
- collect tag
- adjust commit title
