It's better if you send v2 not as reply to v1.

Noted, thank you, and thank you for taking the time to review my patch.

just to clarify. After these two patches
- the PTP_1588_CLOCK can still be set to "M"
- which will cause TI_CPTS to be "M",
- but TI_CPSW will still be "Y".

and all above will build and produce built-in CPSW without CPTS support
and cpts.ko which is loadable, but not functional.

Sorry, I'm a little bit lost regarding the target you'are trying to achieve.
At least previously "imply PTP_1588_CLOCK" allowed to select properly PTP_1588_CLOCK
without modifying every defconfig.

Well, I just wanted to squelch a WARN_ON(). As Arnd pointed out in [1],
code that uses the stubbed cpts functions is supposed to gracefully
handle receiving a null pointer. Splatting a warning is not graceful,
and that's what I was trying to fix.

But your question in [2] prompted me to consider whether it should be
possible to build TI_CPTS without PTP_1588_CLOCK at all. I think the
answer is no, so I tried to fix it, but you're right, it's still
possible to end up with a nonfunctional module after my patch.

If you prefer to revert, that's fine with me. Should I post a patch, or
just ask David to revert?


Ok. After some thinking and hence you commit b6d49cab44b5 ("net: Make PTP-specific drivers depend on PTP_1588_CLOCK")
seems was merged in net (not net-next)
1) for-net: defconfig changes can be separated to fix build fail, but add change for multi_v7_defconfig
2) for-net-next: rest of changes plus below diff on top of it

It should properly resolve "M" vs "Y" dependencies between
PTP_1588_CLOCK->TI_CPTS->TI_CPSW

On thing, TI_CPTS can be selected without TI_CPSW, but it's probably ok.
