[PATCH 4.2 27/30] net: phy: fixed_phy: handle link-down case

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Oct 01 2015 - 05:23:40 EST


4.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stas Sergeev <stsp@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream 868a4215be9a6d80548ccb74763b883dc99d32a2 in net-next tree,
will be pushed to Linus very soon. ]

fixed_phy_register() currently hardcodes the fixed PHY link to 1, and
expects to find a "speed" parameter to provide correct information
towards the fixed PHY consumer.

In a subsequent change, where we allow "managed" (e.g: (RS)GMII in-band
status auto-negotiation) fixed PHYs, none of these parameters can be
provided since they will be auto-negotiated, hence, we just provide a
zero-initialized fixed_phy_status to fixed_phy_register() which makes it
fail when we call fixed_phy_update_regs() since status.speed = 0 which
makes us hit the "default" label and error out.

Without this change, we would also see potentially inconsistent
speed/duplex parameters for fixed PHYs when the link is DOWN.
