[PATCH] net: stmmac: skip VLAN restore when VLAN hash ops are missing

From: Michal Piekos

Date: Sat Mar 14 2026 - 11:30:23 EST


stmmac_vlan_restore() unconditionally calls stmmac_vlan_update() when
NETIF_F_VLAN_FEATURES is set. On platforms where priv->hw->vlan (or
->update_vlan_hash) is not provided, stmmac_update_vlan_hash() returns
-EINVAL via stmmac_do_void_callback(), resulting in a spurious
"Failed to restore VLANs" error even when no VLAN filtering is in use.

Check presence of VLAN hash ops before stmmac_vlan_update().

This patch fixes a noisy "Failed to restore VLANs" message on platforms
where stmmac VLAN hash ops are not implemented.
stmmac_vlan_restore() calls stmmac_vlan_update() without checking for
VLAN hash ops presence which results in -EINVAL.
