[PATCH v2 net-next 5/7] net: dsa: mediatek: support MDIO switch downstream of MMIO switch
From: Caleb James DeLisle
Date: Tue Sep 15 2026 - 15:17:00 EST
The MT7530 / MT7531 can connect via either MDIO or MMIO. In MMIO mode
the switch provides its own MDIO bus which connects to its integrated
PHYs, but also can be connected to other things, such as another
switch.
If the MDIO bus contains another switch, then the upstream switch
will register but it will not setup the DSA tree because the
downstream switch is missing. Without the complete DSA tree,
mt753x_setup() will not be called on the switch and therefore
mt7530_setup_mdio() is never called so the downstream switch never
registers.
Update mt7530_setup_mdio() so that it can be called multiple times,
export the symbol, and call it again after dsa_register_switch()
from mt7988_probe().
